Specifically, I study the effects of contemplative training on sense of self (including behavioral measures of self-bias, agency and ownership) and neural self-related processing. To these ends, I utilize a broad spectrum of tools, including EEG, MEG, fMRI, and various behavioral and cognitive tasks.<br \/>\nAnother major research interest is neuro-phenomenology, utilizing depth phenomenology to guide the neural analysis, in collaboration with proficient contemplative practitioners. Such an approach enables studying highly subtle human experiences, typically overlooked in cognitive science.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Home Page URL:<\/b><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/avivabo.edu.haifa.ac.il\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s2\">https:\/\/avivabo.edu.haifa.ac.il<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof. Aviva Berkovich-Ohana Email: avivabo@edu.haifa.ac.il Affiliation Faculty \/ Department: Dr. Aviva Berkovich-Ohana, Faculty of Education, Departments: Counseling and Human Development; and Learning, Instruction and Teacher Education The Edmond J.
