Summary/Abstract: This special double issue of Annals of Psychology is dedicated to the memory of Professor Piotr Francuz (1960–2020). In this editorial, we introduce the person of the Professor and present the initiatives commemorating him that have taken place over the past year. One of his most significant achievements was the initiation of the Perception and Cognition Lab at KUL, where experimental neurophysiological and behavioural research has been conducted in various areas of cognitive psychology. These basic and applied studies are currently continued by the Professor’s associates. The current special issue contains articles on diverse topics in which the authors—his collaborators and friends—adopt various theoretical perspectives and apply distinctive paradigms. This multi-faceted perspective corresponds with the wide range of Prof. Francuz’s scientific interests.
