Research Interest
|
Human altruism, reputation building and cooperation. My current research interests are to examine the role of recognition emotions in altruist and cheater detection. Present research is directed to identify possible relationship between emotional intelligence and the ability to detect altruist or cheaters. Faces reflect different emotion, and the recognition, interpretation and response towards these emotions affects willingness to cooperate or not with the subject reflecting these emotions.
