معرفی
Dr. Mary Spiller is a Senior Lecturer at the University of East London's School of Psychology, specializing in cognitive and sensory processing. Her research bridges psychology and neuroscience through interdisciplinary studies of synesthesia, mental imagery, and multisensory perception.
Key research areas include:
- Exploring crossmodal correspondences across sensory domains
- Analyzing synesthetic experiences and their cognitive implications
- Investigating mental imagery enhancement in neurodiverse populations
- Studying allocentric spatial representation dynamics
- Examining courtroom biases through avatar-based simulations
Recent publications demonstrate ongoing contributions to understanding sensory integration mechanisms and perceptual biases, with a 2025 paper analyzing avatar-based courtroom dynamics and a 2019 study connecting grapheme-color consistency with mental imagery.
Her work frequently involves collaborations with researchers like Clare Jonas, Paul Hibbard, and Michael Proulx, utilizing both empirical testing and theoretical modeling approaches.
