Research: I am investigating perception processes and decision making among autistic individuals. Specifically, I am examining to what extent Bayesian decision-making models, namely models that integrate expectations and rewards with uncertainty, differ between autistic individuals and non-autistic individuals. The research investigates basic perceptual decision-making processes (stimulus identification/categorization) and metacognitive processes (confidence level in the decision).
