How do humans judge physical stability? A prevalent account emphasizes the mental simulation of physical events implemented by an …

Affective factors such as anxiety, confidence, and motivation can impair and enhance task performance. Here, we used drift diffusion …

Humans are exceptional at intuiting the physical world. Our intuitive sense of the physical world (intuitive physics) is particularly fastinating to me. In this project, I used machine learning models to compare how humans and machines make judgments on an object’s physical stability.

“Filling-in” of visual perception Visual perception is a constructive process. Previously, I studied the “filling-in” process of apparent motion. An illustration of the paths defined by Newtonian physics (A and B) and kinematic geometry (C and D) with Pacmen-shaped objects.
