Anna-Lisa Cohen
In 2003, I received a postdoctoral fellowship from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) to work with Dr. Peter Gollwitzer at New York University in New York City. My research interests focus on prospective memory, executive control, the effect of goals and intentions on behavior, and cognitive development/aging.
Primary Interests:
- Health Psychology
- Motivation, Goal Setting
- Neuroscience, Psychophysiology
- Self and Identity
- Social Cognition
