• Brief description of your expertise / expertise you are looking for:

  Tartu Affect and Regulation Unit (TARU) investigates how emotions and other motives arise, how they can be regulated, and how to build effective interventions to support self-regulation and other helpful behaviors. Specifically, we’re interested in how emotions and other motives arise from predictive cognitions (Everaert et al., 2021; Uusberg, Suri, et al., 2019) and how these affective states shape cognition in turn (Kolnes et al., 2022; Uusberg et al., 2013, 2018). TARU is also home to the reAppraisal framework explaining our ability to change emotions by changing how we think (Uusberg, Taxer, et al., 2019). This work spearheads our broader efforts in understanding how people regulate their emotions, stress and motivation (Gross et al., 2019; Uusberg et al., 2016). Finally, we design and study interventions promoting self-regulation (Wang et al., 2021) as well as other helpful behaviors (Riitsalu & Uusberg, 2021; Vainre et al., 2020). We work with conceptual and computational models, behavioral and psychophysiological experiments, as well as surveys in regular and experience sampling designs.
