EVOLUTION & SOCIAL COGNITION

CONTACT

I am interested in explaining the psychological mechanisms underlying the cultural evolution of fictions. I am currently working on the cognitive factors of attraction for imaginary worlds. I am also interested in the evolutionary origin of the production and consumption of fictions. In particular, I focus on the social benefits of the consumption of fictions.
