Understanding Michael Faraday's scientific life by diary
analysis and replication, headed by Ryan
Tweney
Development of an OBD-II (automobile "computer") interface device
(this is not BGSU related)
Possible future projects
Studying the timecourse and mental representations that are used to perform
numerical tasks--particularly simple judgments of ordinal rank
Replication of traditional serial word/letter memory tasks, but using numbers
- Instead of "Were the numbers recalled in exactly correct format?"
I am interested in "If the numbers were incorrect, were they
recalled in a way that preserves some of the information about their value?"
Serial memory for quantitative values that are NOT presented in a linguistic
or Arabic numeral format - Instead, I want to use something similar to
bargraphs
Methodology: LabVIEW as an excellent (yet
practically unknown within the field) psychological experimentation software
package
Properties of numbers that afford certain operations to be performed on
them
Memory-based sequence smoothing applied to pseudo-realistic situations (i.e.
stock traders, forecasters) - Particularly the implications of smoothing
to making binary or graded decisions
Using the Segway HT (2-wheeled self-stabilized
scooter) in perceptual tasks that are designed to evaluate the "intuitiveness"
of its interface
