Welcome to the WyLab in the Department of Psychology at Cornell University.
The WyLab draws on theory and methods from social psychology, philosophy, law, cognitive science, and neuroscience to better understand the moral mind.
We are particularly interested in understanding the role of information and knowledge in moral decision making and reasoning about rules (and rule-breaking). We look to explore these topics both in rich real-world contexts (e.g., in entertainment) and in the lab. You can find out more about our research here.
