Besides my academic work on the role of reward and selection history in visual selective attention, I conducted project based work in the field of applied psychology and human factors.Project-based work:-Developing and investigating optimal waste recycling pictograms for Rijkswaterstaat (confidential report)- Testing the comprehensiveness of specific road signs for Rijkswaterstaat and Mijksenaar Wayfinding Experts (confidential report)- Using a mobile eye tracker to investigate how children and adults look at paintings of Van Gogh in the Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam (see publication)

Department Of Cognitive Psychology

Keywords: Visual perception, Attention, Reward, Learning, Eye trackingSummary: The scientific articles I published during my PhD contribute to a body of literature, which shows that learning about rewards has a large impact on the allocation of attention and eye movements. Through Pavlovian and instrumental learning strategies we can assess which stimuli are predictive of or associated with reward, so that visual selective attention is biased towards them. The idea put forward in my thesis is that the activity level across the attentional priority map reflects the interplay between stimulus-driven and goal-driven processing, which can be modulated by the learned significance or reward value that stimuli have acquired over time through experience.Application:My academic work is directly relevant and related to the field of marketing.
