Psychology researcher investigating how immersive virtual height exposure affects voice trustworthiness and interoceptive awareness.

Iran
Message

In my Interdisciplinary VR & Cognitive Research project, I developed the research questions, hypotheses, theoretical framework, and experimental protocol for studying how immersive virtual height exposure affects perceived vocal trustworthiness and how that relationship varies with interoceptive awareness. I designed the VR experimental paradigm, and the environment design and video are complete; ethics approval and data collection are pending.

For a systematic review in aesthetic cognition, I contributed to a review of 38 research papers and led the Discussion section, synthesizing findings across behavioral, physiological, electrophysiological, and neurocognitive approaches. I’ve also trained in EEG and eye-tracking methods, and completed hands-on training in molecular and cellular neuroscience.
