(b) Research on the role of epistemic hypervigilance in borderline personality disorder (BPD). This topic is part of a larger series of studies concentrating on epistemic hypervigilance in BPD, and involves testing some key hypotheses concerning epistemic hypervigilance in relation to attachment and mentalizing in a series of experimental studies.听 Self-other distinction in BPD (in collaboration with Dr. Celine De Meulemeester) This research focuses on studying impairments in mentalizing about the self vs. about others in relation to borderline personality disorder (BPD). Specifically, individuals with BPD may be impaired ini self-other distinction (SOD), that is, the ability to differentiate one's own mental states from those of others. This may result in egocentric (ie attributing own mental states to others) or altercentric bias (taking over others' mental states as one's own). Using well-validated experimental tasks, this project will study biases and their predictors in relation to BPD 听
Professor Aikaterini Fotopoulou	Professor of Psychodynamic Neuroscience at the Research Department of Clinical, Educational and Health Psychology at 果冻影院.	Current research projects focus on the psychological and neural mechanisms by which interoceptive body feelings, as well as multimodal representations of the body, are influenced by internalised social expectations, on-line interactions with other people and neuropeptides known to enhance social feelings. These studies point to unique neural mechanisms by which our bodies are interpersonally 'mentalised' to form the basis of our selves.
