Paige Amormino

PhD Student (Psychology)

I am a PhD student in the Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience concentration. I graduated with honors from Princeton University in 2019, where I majored in Psychology. I then worked as a research coordinator at the University of Rochester with Dr. David Dodell-Feder where I studied the effects of reading fiction on social and moral cognition. I currently study the intersection of altruism, morality, and social decision-making.
