I am a Lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Adelaide. I am currently developing course materials in the Graduate Diploma in Psychology (Advanced) and teaching into the Online Graduate Diploma in Psychology. I also work collaboratively with researchers at the Forensic and Clinical Cognition Lab at Flinders University, where I held a postdoctoral appointment from 2019-2021. My current research involves investigating the circumstances that lead people to misperceive or misremember complex visual stimuli. Many factors can contribute to visual perception and memory errors, including attention, arousal, and emotional valence.
I undertook my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Neuroscience at Flinders University. I completed both my Honours (2015) and PhD (2019) in the Forensic and Clinical Cognition Lab. My PhD thesis work focussed on the Boundary Restriction effect, whereby people misremember the periphery of a scene as being less expansive than it actually was. This pattern means that people tend to recall being closer to the scene than they actually were. Understanding memory for proximity is important, particularly in the criminal justice system. If the emotion a person feels at the time of an event can vary their memory for proximity, then two witnesses to the same event may recall different proximities. This discrepancy would be reflected in their testimony, potentially affecting the outcome of trials.
