I have a keen interest in psychometrics as well as in the intersections of executive function, brain injury, and the criminal justice system. During my time with CORTEX, I have contributed to multiple projects, including the DECISION\u2013MAP, E-Fit, and REFRAME. My main focus and independent studies has been the REFRAME project, which has been an in-depth investigation of the task-based assessment tools of executive function.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#8c8c8c” divider_weight=”1px” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.16″ hide_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Research Assistants Simon KurkimakiI am in my final year to complete a BSc in psychology with plans to pursue a MSc in neuroscience.

thesis in psychoeducation of the prevention of cognitive decline. I am hoping to pursue a career
as a child clinical psychologist. My interests include child psychology, health psychology, and
overall how the brain and physical activity relate to mental health. In the CORTEX Lab, I work on DECISION\u2013MAP as part of the reviewer team, supporting the systematic literature synthesis and data extraction aspects of the project. The CORTEX lab has allowed me new opportunities and has increased my curiosity about the human brain.<\/p>\n
