Personal profile: Paola Sessa
Paola Sessa
My research mostly focuses on using EEG/ERP to study how social cues conveyed by human faces, such as emotional expressions, group membership and perceived trustworthiness shape both low-level processes (resolution of faces’ representations in visual working memory) and empathy towards others’ emotional states. I am particularly interested in individual and contextual variability in empathic processes, and in the relationship between empathy and self-awareness.
