Research Projects
There are fifteen research projects being conducted by single-discipline teams at the various NCCR member universities. There are also eight interdisciplinary “research foci” that bring together scholars and scientists from the various project teams to pursue common areas of interest.
The individual projects are grouped according to three different but overlapping research areas, focusing on:
- the nature of the affect mechanisms, particularly elicitation, response organization, and perception;
- the regulation of the underlying states and their manifestations; and
- the embedding of affect in a sociohistoric and sociocultural context.
