John Stins is an Assistant Professor at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, specializing in the Faculty of Behavioural and Movement Sciences. His research focuses on how cognition, emotion, personality, and psychopathology impact motor organization and balance regulation. Stins studies the interaction between emotional states and postural control by examining how various emotional stimuli can influence static balance and movement initiation. He explores cognitive regulation in postural tasks, investigating the causal effects of working memory, mental fatigue, and attentional load on balance regulation mechanisms. His work contributes to a deeper understanding of the underlying processes affecting human movement and balance, providing insights into both behavioral characteristics and cognitive influences on physical performance.
