Research interestsI’m primarily interested in psychosis-like phenomena (delusional beliefs and ideas) such as
apophenia (the perception of nonexistent patterns in our surroundings), as well as other related
phenomena – decision-making processes and fallacies, irrational beliefs, and personality traits
that lie on the psychosis continuum. I am interested in the mechanisms and processes of
formation and maintenance of psychosis and psychosis-like phenomena, that is, how they arise
and why they persist in one’s psychological life.
