Tobias Grage

Tobias Grage is a Researcher affiliated with the Department of Psychology at Technische Universität Dresden, within the Faculty of Science. His work is conducted at the Institute of General Psychology, Biopsychology and Methods of Psychology. Grage holds a Diploma in Psychology from TU Dresden (2014) and completed his PhD there since May 2015 under the supervision of Jun.-Prof. Dr. Stefan Scherbaum. He previously earned a degree in Cognitive Science from Osnabrück University (2006-2008).

His research focuses on control dilemmas, specifically investigating the interplay between shielding and shifting control functions. He employs dynamic neural field models alongside empirical measures like mouse tracking to identify meta-control parameters governing decision-making dynamics. Grage has contributed to subproject A8 and has held roles such as research assistant under Dr. Stefan Scherbaum and Dr. Matthias Rudolf, as well as tutoring in cognitive neuropsychology and statistics at Osnabrück University.

His publications emphasize methodological rigor in mouse-tracking studies, exploring how design factors influence behavioral and cognitive inferences. Grage’s work bridges cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and empirical methodology, addressing both theoretical and applied aspects of decision processes and neural dynamics.
