Peer-Reviewed Publications
Each of these publications represents a herculean amount of thought, planning, teamwork, leg work, and defense in the face of scrutiny. For a scientific paper to be published, the work must have been funded, the data collected and cleaned, analyses done, and most importantly - it must stand the test of validity in front of less-than-friendly reviewers. If these reviewers do not agree that the findings are valid, the paper does not get published.
For these reasons, I am immensely proud of all the work represented in my publications. I'm immensely grateful for my co-authors and everyone who helped make these possible. These are the bricks with which our understanding of human cognition is built.
