Yijin Fang

Ph.D Student

She is a PhD candidate in the Department of Psychological and Cognitive Science at Tsinghua University. Her research focuses on individual's exploratory behavior in the uncertain contexts. She is working on understanding: what kind of exploration strategies individuals adopt to cope with uncertainty? How do internal (e.g., knowlegde states; confidence) and environmental factors (e.g., time pressure; diversity and complexity) influence people's exploration? and what is the developmental trajectory of these exploratory strategies?
