The Brase Lab -- Adaptive Reasoning & Decisions
Our lab studies human adaptive reasoning and decisions from a multidisciplinary approach. Specifically, we use evolutionary theory to generate hypotheses about how the mind has been designed over evolutionary history. We frame these hypotheses as information processing descriptions of how the mind works -- a focus on cognitive psychology areas such as reasoning, judgments and decision-making. Finally, a lot of the actual topics we study fall into the domain of social psychology (for example, interpersonal relations, social perception, and persuasion).

We threw axes and managed to not hit each other (and often, not the target either).
