Cognitive Psychology Research Lab

The Cognitive Psychology Research Lab at FCCU is one of the first experimental laboratories for cognitive psychology in Pakistan. Cognitive Psychology is the study of processes such as attention, memory, language, and problem solving. Most of the research on cognition has been completed in contexts that intrinsically value individuality, personal achievement, and accuracy.

Our goal in the Cognitive Psychology Research Lab is to understand how cognition may approximate or diverge from previous research, in our cultural context.

To participate in a study, go to E339.
