What we do


The Behavioral Foundations Lab is Temple University’s advanced center for conducting research on beliefs, attitudes, psychophysiology, and intuition.

We are devoted to understanding how people form political attitudes, and how they express those attitudes in their daily choices, decisions, and activities.

We are particularly concerned with the ways in which predispositions, information processing, and the communication context shape the attitude formation processes and civic engagement of citizens and voters.
