Main Research
Kang Lee Lab has conducted research in a variety of areas including:
deception in children and adults, racial bias, bias reduction in
children, and fraud among senior citizens. Our studies have also focused
on understanding brain development and brain processes of infants and
adults using neuroimaging technology called functional Near-Infrared
Spectroscopy (fNIRS). We have also conducted research using transdermal
optical imaging technology to measure physiological changes such as
heart rate and blood pressure from a person's face.
