Biography

Dr. Lintz received his PhD in Cognitive Psychology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2024. His research interests are widespread within the areas of attention, perception, and working memory, though his focus is on how attention operates within working memory. More specifically, the differences between internally-directed (reflective) attention and perceptual attention. To achieve these aims, he translates traditional perceptual attention tasks to the reflective attention domain and applies both cognitive-behavioral and neuroscience methods. His current work investigates the core processes that support working memory maintenance, and seeks to inform the debate surrounding the putative processes of refreshing and removal.
