Super excited to have this paper finally published! 🎉
Using an immersive VR foraging paradigm, we show that different human defensive states can be distinguished across movement, physiology, and subjective experience, rather than being treated as a single "freezing" response. @gamerlab.bsky.social
Very well deserved!
And finally, in symposium 107 on early visual processing of socio-emotional cues, @yannikstegmann.bsky.social focuses on how reflexive social attention shapes sensory processing in primary visual cortex (14:00-15:30, HS 08)
@yashasramakrishna.bsky.social reports how active choice affects physiological states in conditions with varying temporal uncertainty (Poster Session 2, #595)
And finally: As part of symposium 129 on advances in social cognition research, I will show some data on how emotion-diagnostic facial features guide social gaze across screen-based and interactive contexts (15:30-17:00, HS 08)
@ecemtavacioglu.bsky.social reports a recent experiment on how human foraging behavior is shaped by the spatial distribution of reward and threat gradients (Poster Session 1, #436)
@mreutter.bsky.social examines whether N2pc and reaction time indices of attentional bias can be reliably captured simultaneously in one experiment (Poster Session 2, #578)
@francescotortora.bsky.social focusses on dissecting contextual representations in human threat learning and memory in an immersive virtual reality setup (Poster Session 2, #573)
@alinagabrielaluca.bsky.social presents two experiments on behavioral and pupillometric indicators of concealed information under different response deadline conditions (Poster Session 2, #443)
#PUG2026 continues. Watch out for further work from the Gamer lab 👇
