Mes recherches s’inscrivent dans les domaines de la psychologie cognitive et de la psychogie sociale, elles portent à divers degrés sur la question de la compréhension intuitive du comportement et des signaux manifestés par autrui. Voici quelques exemples de thématiques qui m’intéressent particulièrement :

• la compréhension intuitive de la structure visuelle des événements
• la notion d’interface sociale et d’affordances sociales dans les interactions avec des robots
• le design de l’agentivité
• les relations entre construction de l’intersubjectivité, expressivité et signalisation sociale
• la constitution technique des interactions sociales, notamment la question de la mise en présence des individus dans les interactions en ligne
