Welcome to the homepage for the Cognition and Emotion Lab (CEL) in the School of Communication at Florida State University. The CEL is directed by the Distinguished and Endowed Provost McKenzie Professor Dr. Russell B. Clayton. The CEL is a media psychology research and teaching laboratory devoted to investigating how people cognitively and emotionally process and respond to different types of media messages and technologies. The CEL (room 4402 in University Center C) houses psychophysiological measurement tools (BIOPAC) including cardiac activity, skin conductance, and facial electromyography, as well as eye-tracking equipment (wearable eye-tracking glasses), and measurement tools for recording behavioral and response latency data.
