Factors Influencing Deepfake Detection
Our research group is investigating various features of deepfake videos (such as race of the video’s subject) that make their inauthenticity more or less conspicuous.
Hackiness
This project aims to identify predictors of one’s inclincation toward “hacky” problem solving behavior.
Individual Differences in Deepfake Detection
In this program of research we are aiming to identify psychological traits that predict an observers ability to detect inauthenticity in deepfake videos.
Individual Differences in Subgoal Acquisition
The Problem Solving and Educational Technology Laboratory has published extensively on the utility of optimizing educational materials by labeling worked example problems at the subgoal level as opposed to the step level. This project aims to identify psychological traits that predict one’s ability to glean widely applicable subgoals from suboptimal educational material.
Internet Search Ability
This program of research is an attempt to develop and validate measures of internet search ability and to demonstrate that, when administered alongside traditional measures of cognitive ability, such a measure adds incremental predictivity in a variety of problem-solving domains.
Wikiracing
This program of research aims to evaluate the potential for using the Wikipedia Game (also known as “Wikiracing”) as a new measure of crystalized intelligence.
