Research Teams
2nd-year SET students should take part in 4 meetings of Research Teams in different laboratories or departments.
Research Teams schedule
1. Psychophysiology Laboratory at Institute of Psychology
The Psychophysiology Laboratory, established by prof. Jan Kaiser, explores the neural correlates of a variety of cognitive and affective processes. In the first years our Lab studied early attentional processes and individual differences using autonomic measures, such as heart rate or electrodermal activity. A few years ago our "tool of choice" became electroencephalography. Some of our lab members also use fMRI and eye-tracking.
At present, the following research projects are being run:
- How the emotional state is related to patterns of brain activity. In quest of state-dependent correlates of subjective state. prof. Jan Kaiser, Mirosław Wyczesany, Szczepan Grzybowski
- How attention influences facial emotions processing. Eligiusz Wronka & Wioleta Walentowska
- What formal features determine the significance of emotional stimuli. Michał Kuniecki
- How we perceive simultaneity of multisensory events. Marek Binder
- How top-down processes influence the perception of words embedded in semantic contexts. Jakub Szewczyk
- Cognitive functions with an exclusive or prevalent development in humans, especially reading. Marcin Szwed
During meetings we will shortly explain to you our research approaches using examples of our studies.

2. Center for Evaluation and Public Policy Analysis
Center's founding idea was to take the fullest advantage of our staff's theoretical knowledge, analytical skills, and research experiences for the purpose of analyzing public policies and programmes. We specialize in research projects on social and economic issues within various fields of public sphere:
- Human capital
- Labor market's dynamics
- Lifelong learning
- Social Research Methodology
- Regional Development
- Higher education
- Entrepreneurship support
- Social exclusion
