معرفی
Felicity Wolohan is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology with an active research career spanning from 2014 through 2025. Her work focuses on cognitive processes related to visual attention and oculomotor control, with significant contributions to understanding saccade mechanisms and inhibitory control.
Her research interests center on visual attention systems and cognitive control mechanisms. Wolohan's work particularly examines how emotional states influence cognitive processing, as evidenced by her recent 2025 publication on emotional bases of cognitive control in the Flanker Task. She has made substantial contributions to understanding express saccades across different populations and the neural mechanisms underlying oculomotor inhibition.
Wolohan's publication record shows consistent output in high-impact journals, with research spanning cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and psychopharmacology. Her work demonstrates methodological expertise in eye-tracking paradigms and cognitive testing procedures, particularly the Flanker Task and oculomotor response tasks. The research shows increasing sophistication in examining the intersection of emotion and cognition.
- Flanker Task research examining emotional influences on cognitive control
- Studies on express saccades across different cultural populations
- Investigations into oculomotor inhibition mechanisms
- Research on MDMA's effects on visuospatial processing
Wolohan maintains active research collaborations, as evidenced by her co-authored publications with researchers like Yamaguchi, Knox, and Murphy. Her work appears in reputable journals including Experimental Brain Research, Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, and Cognition and Emotion, demonstrating both methodological rigor and theoretical significance in the field of cognitive neuroscience.
