Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC). Centro de Matemática, Computação e Cognição (CMCC) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
B.A. in Psychology (1999-2002) and certified Clinical Psychologist (1999-2003) from Universidade Federal de São Carlos, Brazil. M.Sc. (2004-2006) and Ph.D. (2004-2009) in Experimental Psychology from the Department of Psychology at Brown University in Providence, RI, USA. From 2009 to 2012, he was at The John B. Pierce Laboratory (Postdoctoral Associate) and in the Neurobiology Department at Yale University School of Medicine (Postdoctoral Fellow), both in New Haven, CT, USA. Currently he is an Associate Professor in the Center for Mathematics, Computation and Cognition and Dean of Graduate Studies at Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC) in the greater São Paulo area, Brazil. He is the Director of Outreach of the National Institute for Science and Technology on Behavior, Cognition and Teaching. He has extensive experience in psychology and neuroscience, with the use of different techniques in experimental psychology, animal models of behavior, electrophysiology, and neuropharmacology. Research topics include timing, stimulus control, executive control, and neuroscience and education, with humans and non-human subjects. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The thematic project, under the responsibility of a team of researchers in various specializations within Experimental Psychology, aims to investigate cognitive and behavioral processes from the perspective of visual attention, regarded as a underlying process to basic psychological processes (learning, perception, emotion, and memory) that accompany symbolic formation and language develo…
This is a proposal to support a 12-month visit of Dr. Armando Machado (Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal) to UFABC, with scheduled visits to the laboratories of the National Institute of Science and Technology on Behavior, Cognition, and Teaching (ECCE- INCT) at UFSCar, funded by FAPESP (Grant #2014/50909-8), CNPq (Grant #465686/2014-1), and CAPES (Grant #88887.136407/2017-00). The main pu…
This proposal addresses issues related to the Brazilian inclusive teaching, which could potentially be resolved with technological assistance both in the educational and clinical settings. The overall goal is to contribute with the development and evaluation of computerized teaching protocols, and to provide empirical data to support their widespread use. The proposal has been divided int…

The N400 is a neurophysiological measure sensitive to semantic relations between stimuli, including equivalence relations. This study aims to (1) investigate whether modifying reinforcement contingencies that underlie equivalence relations produces corresponding alterations in the N400 component and (2) assess whether the use of meaningful stimuli influences class resistance to these modi…
There has been a growing interest in the insula in recent years as recent evidence suggests its involvement in high-order processes, such as detecting salient events to guide goal-directed behavior in decision-making tasks. Projections between the insula and medial Prefrontal Cortex (mPFC) - observed both in rats and humans - also suggest a function for the insula in the integration of au…

Contextual control is fundamental to symbolic behavior, as it allows learned relations to vary according to environmental cues. Stimulus equivalence studies often employ matching-to-sample (MTS) procedures, but recent calls for more naturalistic approaches suggest that stimulus pairing may better mirror the incidental learning contexts found in daily life. This study aims to investigate w…
In the text below we tried to present arguments for clarifying the relevance of the internship on the Oslo Metropolitan University for the research project that is already in progress. An "Introduction" will provide a broad summary of the theoretical and empirical foundations of the original project. The second topic is an overview of the experimental advances that have being accomplished…
