What Do You Do?

I know there are a few psychologists out there lurking around. This post is for you. I thought it might be interesting for some of you (all of you? any of you? hello, is this thing on?) to write a little bit about what you do as psychologists. That is, what you're researching, how you study it, perhaps your general perspective on cognition, why you got into cognition and your specific area(s) of research in particular, etc. It wouldn't have to be long (though it can be as long as you like), just a summary that, when combined with those from other psychologists, would give people a sense of what's going on in cognitive psychology these days. So if you're currently working in cognitive psychology, as faculty member, grad student, whatever, and you'd like to do this and have me post it on the blog, drop me an email. I suppose social cognition people, and maybe cognitive neuroscience people can chime in, too. Oh hell, if you're doing anything related to cognition, write me, and we can talk about it.
