At 10 a.m. on May 24, Dr. Xiaopan Ding, Assistant Professor of the Department of Psychology, National University of Singapore, was invited to the Psychological Science Research Center for academic exchanges, bringing an excellent lecture entitled "The Neural Correlates of Deception: Evidence from Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Studies" to the teachers and students of the Center. Researcher Xiaoqing Gao presided over the lecture.

Dr.Xiaopan Ding is engaged in the study of children's moral and cognitive behavior, focusing on children's honesty and dishonesty. She uses behavioral and neurological methods to explore the cognitive and neurological relevance of children's deception.

Deception is common in our daily life. With the development of technology in recent ten years, it is possible to study deception under natural conditions by using functional near-infrared spectroscopy. Through a series of studies, Dr. Ding focused on the role of reward system and the psychological theory of unconscious deception, as well as the practical meaning of using functional near-infrared spectroscopy to study deception, and specifically described how to use functional near-infrared spectroscopy to study adults and children's deception. Neurological mechanism.

After the wonderful report, the teachers and students had a heated academic discussion with Dr. Ding. The lecture ended in a pleasant atmosphere.
