I completed my Bachelor\u2019s and Master\u2019s studies in Psychology in Budapest, Hungary. I obtained my PhD under the supervision of J\u00e1nos Horv\u00e1th at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics while working as a Junior Research Fellow at the Research Centre for Natural Sciences. After finishing my PhD, I worked as a lecturer at the P\u00e1zm\u00e1ny P\u00e9ter Catholic University in Budapest (2020\u20132021), followed by postdoctoral positions with Roland Pfister at the University of W\u00fcrzburg (2021\u20132024) and with Moritz Wurm at CIMeC in Rovereto (2025\u20132026). In March 2026, I joined Brainlab as a Beatriu de Pin\u00f3s fellow.<\/p>\n<p>My research focuses on interactions between the motor and sensory systems. During my PhD, I studied self-generated sounds, examining how predictions derived from actions influence the processing of auditory consequences and how expectations about these effects contribute to action control. In later work, I extended this line of research to social interactions, focusing on the relationship between actions and the social consequences of these actions. My studies address questions such as how predictive processes in social and non-social contexts compare, how anticipated social action consequences influence action planning and monitoring, and how agency and responsibility are attributed in situations involving multiple interacting agents. In my current project at Brainlab, my goal is to develop interactive experimental paradigms that capture key features of real-life social interactions while maintaining the experimental control necessary to study predictive processing using behavioral and neurophysiological methods.<\/p>\n<p>My publications can be found on Google Scholar:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?user=qZa_oJsAAAAJ&amp;hl=en\">https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?user=qZa_oJsAAAAJ&amp;hl=en<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4095,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-4094","researcher","type-researcher","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Neszm\u00e9lyi, B. - Brainlab<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/brainlab\/researcher\/neszmelyi-b\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Neszm\u00e9lyi, B. - Brainlab\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I am a postdoctoral researcher at Brainlab studying predictive processes in social interactions.
