People
We are composed of PhD students, masters students, undergrads, and affiliates from around the world, under the direction of PI Boaz Keysar.
We're a University of Chicago lab trying to figure out why switching languages can make you a bolder gambler, a harsher judge, or a more honest person. Our team speaks over a dozen languages and brings perspectives from six continents. It helps when the research question is your lived experience.
