Hayden Bottoms, BS Hayden's current research interests center around an exploration of social cognitive deficits in clinical populations, especially those individuals with schizophrenia. Specifically, she is interested in understanding distortions in affect perception and social perception and investigating cognitive biases such as attributional style. Of particular interest are such questions as how an individual with a clinical disorder perceives, comprehends, and explains emotional and social information and additionally how cognitive processes mediate these tendencies. A comprehensive understanding of how an individual perceives the interpersonal world will contribute to the development of more effective assessment and more targeted therapeutic interventions.
