Dr. Reed is the the McElwee Family Professor of Psychology & George R. Roberts Fellow and Professor of Psychology & Neuroscience in the department of Psychology at Claremont McKenna College, California. Using the tools of cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and electrophysiology, she investigates the role that the body plays in directing our perception, attention, object recognition, emotional processing, and financial decision making. It is important for humans to recognize others\u2019 identities, facial expressions, and postures. Only recently have psychologists recognized the body\u2019s contributions expert visual processing. We investigate how we recognize other people\u2019s body postures, how one\u2019s own body posture influences our perceptions other people\u2019s intentions, and how our bodily experience influences our perception.<\/p>\n
