Équipe de recherche

Thèmes de recherche

Mes travaux de recherche portent principalement sur les processus cognitifs impliqués dans les activités de lecture. Je m’intéresse en particulier à l’effet de la fréquence lexicale sur la reconnaissance visuelle des mots. En parallèle, depuis quelques années, je cherche à comprendre l’influence des jeux (jeux de société, jeux vidéo) sur certaines fonctions cognitives.

Mots-clés : psycholinguistique ; lecture ; fréquence lexicale

Principaux enseignements

Statistiques ; Psychologie cognitive
