Ph.D. Cognitive Psychology, University of Pennsylvania, 1975.
My work relies on parallel distributed processing
models of perception, memory, language and thought. My collaborators and I combine experimental and computational
approaches to investigate perception and production of spoken language, memory and learning, and attention and
decision making. We also investigate aspects of cognitive development, especially focusing on language, semantic
knowledge, and causal reasoning, and we also examine the effects of brain disease and brain damage on
cognition. A recent interest, combining behavior, MEG, MRI, and modeling, is the coherent engagement of distributed
brain regions during perception, attention, and cognition.
