Dr. Leite joined the department of psychology at OSU Lima in 2007, after a 2-year postdoctoral position on the Columbus campus.

His main research interest involves the analysis of response time and accuracy data from quick decisions in order to infer how people process information.  Dr. Leite has taught many courses at OSU Lima, among which Research Methods and Memory & Cognition.

In addition, Dr. Leite has mentored several undergraduate students in research.  If you are interested in finding out whether there is an opportunity for you (for which you can earn course credit), email him.  Beware that research takes time; ideally, plan to commit for at least a full academic year – you will have fun and learn a lot!
