Eniola is a 4th year Honours BA Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour thesis student in the Turkstra lab. Her current research is focused on the area of interactive alignment. Specifically, how individuals engaged in conversation tend to align their linguistic and non-linguistic behaviours with one another, and how this process can influence communication and social interaction. For her thesis project, she is investigating how interactive alignment is affected in adult traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. Particularly, she will be quantifying interactive alignment with recurrence quantification analysis to compare measures between adults with TBI and their communication partners before and after undergoing communication partner training.
