The Psychology Colloquium series presents Dr. Kentaro Fujita on “Transcending Temptation: The Role of Abstraction in
Self-Control Decision-Making” on Friday, April 14, at 11:50 a.m. in Porter 102.
Fujita is currently an Associate Professor at Ohio State University. He obtained his PhD in psychology from the University of New York in 2006. He is broadly interested in how motivation and cognition dynamically interact to influence evaluation, judgment, decision, and behavior. His most recent work examines the cognitive and motivational mechanisms that underlie self-control decisions and other self-regulatory phenomena. He is also interested in what motivates change at the individual-, group-, and system-level.
