The overarching goal of Personality, Attachment, and Control (PAC) Lab is to examine the processes – those that are affective
and automatic as well as those that are cognitive and controlled – that shape people's experiences within their closest and
most significant relationships.
Given that many of these processes are occurring at an automatic and at times unconscious level, ongoing projects in the PAC Lab
draw from research and theory from social and personality, cognitive, developmental and most recently cognitive neuroscience.
Some of the questions currently being explored are:
- How are close relationships mentally represented and how do these mental representations relate to subjective experience?
- To what extent are mental representations of relationships in adulthood shaped by early relationship experiences?
- How do individual differences in how people mentally represent relationships relate to neurophysiological processes?
- How do people shape the situations they encounter in the future, which in turn shapes them?
