Emotion, Brain, & Behavior Laboratory
Studying the brain and body correlates of emotion, from reaction to regulation
In the Emotion, Brain, & Behavior Laboratory (EBBL) in the Department of Psychology at Tufts University, we seek to understand how people, mostly adults, experience, express, and regulate their emotions. In recent years, we have broadened the scope of our work to focus on performance under stress.
We primarily use behavioral and psychophysiological methods (skin conductance, electrocardiography, facial electromyography, eye tracking). Our past work has featured functional magnetic resonance imaging to identify neural correlates of processes of interest.
The EBBL was established in 2005 by Heather Urry. We endorse open scientific values. We make our data, code, and materials openly available, and preregister our studies, hypotheses, and analysis plans when appropriate. Check out the Get Involved page for information about joining the lab.
