In my project, EEG will be used to assess electrophysiological correlates of error processing in patients with OCD. Hyperactive error monitoring is one of the most robust psychophysiological alterations in OCD and may qualify as a neurobiological marker for the disorder. The aim of my project is to elucidate the role of overactive error monitoring in patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). This will inform us about domain-specificity or generality of metacognitive mechanisms.Ħ5% research position, Freigeist fellowship Elisa Filevich, Volkswagen StiftungĮfficacy of physiological stimulation in modulating neurobiological markers of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Second, I will look how metacognition of action relates to metacognition in other domains. If it is poorer in PD than in healthy participants, it can be a potential point for intervention. In my project, I will first study metacognitive ability in PD. However, it is not clear how far they extend. Some metacognitive deficits have been observed in PD as well. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an interesting case for metacognition of action, as it is characterized not only with motor, but also with cognitive symptoms. Up to date, metacognitive research has been focusing on visual and memory domains, with little attention given to the motor domain. Metacognition is introspection into our own cognitive processes.

I plan to do that by comparing subjective reports of emotion with brain and peripheral activity recordings, indicative of emotional responses.
My aim is to investigate metacognitive monitoring of our own affective states, whether this ability can be trained via meditation practices, and whether it is impaired in autistic individuals. Studies about metacognition of emotion recognition have shown that we do know when we correctly recognise particular emotional states in others, but it remains unknown whether we are also able to do it for our own emotions. How sure are we of what we feel at a given moment? How much do we know about our emotional reactions? Much has been studied about emotional and metacognitive processing in humans, but not how these two cognitive processes work together.

To this end, the aim of my empirical investigation is to provide the first unified mechanistic understanding of the functional consequences of retinotopic remapping. Retinotopic Mechanics derived using classical physicsĭespite decades of research, a unifying account of the functional correlates of retinotopic remapping remains elusive.
