About
I recently graduated from the Radboud University Nijmegen with a research master in philosophy (summa cum laude). In July 2011, I received an NWO grant to carry out a PhD project titled 'Mind and Narrativity'. The project aims to provide an integrative account of the roles played by narrativity in the overall functioning of the human mind, more specifically in consciousness, sense of self, and the atttribution of reasons for action.
In my MA thesis, titled "Confabulation in First-Person Mindreading", I have made an attempt to provide a reinterpretation of the classic tension between the symmetries and asymmetries of the knowledge we have of self and other, by approaching self-attribution from a folk psychological perspective.
Other research interests include: social cognition/theory of mind; EEC; consciousness; personhood; personal identity; free will; agency and the self.
