Diane Baier is currently studying the development and adaption of spatial hearing across the human lifespan by combining auditory psychophysical and neurophysiological measures. During her PhD, she was mainly focusing on visual attention. She examined language influences (caused by one’s native language) on visual attention during various language-related and unrelated tasks, both for conscious and unconscious processing. Her research also includes the relationship between visual attention and stimulus awareness, as well as memory contents during visual search.
