Antonio Aranda - Experience in Psychology

Home   Contact

My study of Psychology at the Universidad Nacional de Educacion a Distancia (UNED) in Madrid comprised some practical work o:

During my study I made a half-year practicum on metacognition analysis, using statistical methods based on fuzzy logic. For this purpose, the softare tool proposed was tested in the context of a major experiment with several hundred participants (university students) during a whole day session, in which their metacognitive behaviour was recorded and analyzed. The analysis used the program that I produced.

My graduation thesis was in the field of cognition processes in software development.

Subsequently I began the master study at the UNED in the research area of metacognition and emotional interaction with machines. Since the basic AI tools that I needed to complete this work were not available at the time, I  parked the activity since 2016. However, I am gathering the information and building up the expertise to resume this activity in a near future.


  • For my practicum, my thesis and the further work in the master activities I did some programming developments in R and javascript. The former effort was presented by my mentor in an international conference on cognition back in 2015.
