Kristina Krasich
B.A., Duke University
M.A., University of Notre Dame
Kristina's research interests are in the areas of visual attention, visual memory, and cognitive training. She is currently conducting research that aims to idenitify gaze-based markers of mind wandering (i.e., daydreaming) in multimedia learning contexts and real-time interventions that can restore attention to primary tasks.

Join the Lab
If you are interested in joining the lab to begin or develop your academic career, to pursue an advanced degree, or to gain research experience prior to graduate studies, positions are available!
Ph.D. Positions: The Visual Cognition Lab intends to accept new graduate students (studies to begin in August, 2019). Applications will be due December 1, 2018. Prospective students are welcome to contact Prof. Brockmole to discuss their interests and qualifications before submitting an application.
Undergraduate Positions: Undergraduates at the University of Notre Dame who have successfully completed their statistics requirement are invited to become part of the Visual Cognition Lab Team. Undergraduate research assistants work directly with faculty and other senior researchers to implement experiments by engaging in activities such as hypothesis development, stimulus creation, computer programming, participant testing, and data analysis. Students will broaden their academic experience by extending their learning outside the classroom, obtaining specific skills related to conducting psychological research, and developing applied critical thinking skills. Students of all educational backgrounds are invited to join the lab, and these opportunities will be particularly helpful for those preparing to attend graduate school. Please contact Prof. James Brockmole at James.Brockmole@nd.edu to learn more.
