Dr. Danielle Shore

Biography

Danielle Shore is the Deputy Research Director in Clinical Psychology Training at the University of Oxford. Her research focuses on the role of social information, notably facial expressions, in shaping social interactions and decision-making processes. She aims to understand the dynamics of successful and unsuccessful social interactions, particularly how facial expressions impact emotional processes and behavioral responses during these interactions. Shore's work investigates how dyadic interpersonal dynamics and the displays of partners influence their behaviors. Her research methodology includes behavioral studies in social cognition that explore how individuals navigate social interactions, make decisions based on social cues, and interpret emotional displays. She seeks to uncover how beliefs and motives affect the interpretation of facial expressions in social contexts. Shore's contributions to the field emphasize the significance of affect and social relations in psychological research.
