The Psychophysiology Laboratory at IIT Bombay undertakes both basic and applied research using approaches from experimental cognitive psychology, psychophysiology, cognitive neuroscience and criminal psychology. The physiological methods of research used include EEG, Event Related Potential, galvanic skin response, neuro-feedback and eye-tracking. Behavioural measurement is also carried out using softwares like E-Prime, the Iowa Gambling Task and Time estimation, as well as psychometric tools like the Stroop task and Wisconsin Card Sorting Task. A high priority is placed on the applied aspect of research and currently the topics under study include learning disabilities, depression, medical decision-making and creativity. There is an emphasis on understanding the brain mechanisms underlying these phenomena, so as to use this knowledge to promote healthy living and overall well-being of human beings.
