Biography
My name is Sieun An. I am currently an assistant professor at Ashoka University, India. I am Korean. I spent most of my childhood in S. Korea, and part of it in Japan. I went to the US for my higher education; B.A. in Psychology (Minor in Sociology), M.A. in Experimental Psychology, and Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology. Following that, I moved to Canada to work as a postdoc (Cross-Cultural Psychology), and then moved to China to work as a postdoc (Neuropsychology). Now I am in India. I specialize in Experimental Psychology, with an emphasis in social cognition. My research interests are attribution, morality, and emotion, and I research these topics both within and across cultures. I investigate human thought processes and behavior cognitively, physiologically, and neurologically.
