Hi! My name is Rochelle Kaper (she / her) and I am a 2nd year PhD student in Cognitive Sciences (concentration in Cognitive Neuroscience) at the University of California, Irvine, advised by Dr. Megan Peters in the Reflexion Lab.
I am interested in using computational cognitive neuroscience approaches to understand how we adaptively learn and represent information under uncertainty, and how we evaluate our own learning and decision-making processes in doing so.
Click here for more information on my current projects utilizing novel behavioral paradigms and computational modeling to study structure learning, representations, and metacognition under uncertainty. Feel free to check out our recent preprint!
Before I began my PhD, I received my Master of Science in Cognitive Science and Bachelor of Science in Psychological Science from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Advised by Dr. Chris Sims and Dr. Alicia Walf, my Master's project examined how stress and anxiety alter the representation of information needed for visual working memory and decision-making.
In my free time, I enjoy running, hiking, going to the beach, and karaoke!
