The experimental lab, under the Department of Psychology at Indira Gandhi college of arts and science, is a ‘cognitive processes lab’ and is facility dedicated to understanding the underlying mechanisms of human cognition and behaviour. Our lab uses experimental methods to investigate various aspects of cognitive psychology including attention, perception, memory, decision-making and language processing. Here our students can focus on their research based on attention and distraction, visual perception and object recognition, human memory and learning, and language comprehension and production etc.
Lab activities containing designing and conducting experiments using behavioural and cognitive measures, collecting, and analysing data using statistical software like SPSS etc. Through these processes, our lab is the core place for advance better understanding of human cognitive processes, developing evidence-based interventions for cognitive and behavioural disorders and the main goal of our experimental lab is to train and mentor students in research methods and scientific inquiry. We achieve these goals through creating a safe and non-judgemental space for students and their individual subjects supervised by experienced faculty members of experimental psychology.
