With several years of research experience, Ricardo Correia has developed specialized expertise in experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience, particularly in auditory processing and EEG methodologies. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from ISCTE-IUL and a Master’s in Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology from the University of Lisbon, completed with distinction. Currently, he is a first-year PhD student in Psychology at ISCTE-IUL, where he investigates rhythm-speech methods and their impact on rhythm learning. His research has included contributions to several projects at CIS-IUL and the VoicES Lab, such as the validation of the Montreal Affective Voices Scale for the Portuguese population and the MUSE project ("Music for the development of social skills"). His Master’s thesis, evaluated as “Excellent,” used ERP techniques to study the neural effects of musical training on emotional voice perception. He is a member of the BEC (Behavior, Emotion, and Cognition) research group at CIS-IUL and collaborates on behavioral and EEG-based studies. In parallel, he is co-authoring a book chapter on EEG experimental design and contributes actively to academic training and scientific outreach. He has mentored undergraduate students in EEG methodology and serves on the organizing committee of the XX PhD Meeting in Psychology at ISCTE-IUL.
