Fiammetta Marini is a Research Fellow at the School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen. She completed her BSc in Psychological Sciences and Techniques (University of Bologna, 2018) and MSc in Neuroscience and Neuropsychological Rehabilitation (University of Padova, 2020), followed by a PhD in Psychology at the University of Aberdeen (2025). Her research focuses on visual perception, particularly serial dependence and negative aftereffects in facial processing.
- Education: BSc (University of Bologna), MSc (University of Padova), PhD (University of Aberdeen)
- Affiliation: School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen
Marini's research explores how serial effects shape visual perception, with applications to understanding trustworthiness judgments in social contexts. Her work connects to real-world scenarios like the TV show "The Traitors," analyzing how collective visual biases influence decisions about human trustworthiness. She also investigates ensemble perception of facial traits and its neural underpinnings.
The most recent publications (2024) examine super-recognizers, serial dependence in object tracking, and emotional modulation of negative aftereffects. Earlier works (2022-2023) established foundational insights about ensemble perception for trustworthiness and its stability in human cognition. These studies span disciplines including psychology, neuroscience, and human-computer interaction.
