Yanjun Liu studies how people perceive, attend to, and make decisions, using experimental psychology and mathematical modeling. A recurring focus is 'learning traps'—situations where selective attention leads people to persistently avoid useful information—as well as how the mind processes visual features and combines them (for example in visual illusions). Some work also touches on decision-making in economic and organizational settings.
