Imogen Holdsworth
Higher Degree by Research Candidate
School of Psychology
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
I am a PhD candidate, supervised by Dr Nicole Nelson and Dr Amanda Taylor, in the Develop Well Lab at the University of Adelaide's School of Psychology.
My interests lie mainly in anxiety, autism, mental health, plus developmental and child psychology. I also enjoy learning more about individual differences, wellbeing, and neurodivergence more generally.
My PhD research is investigating how traits of social anxiety and autism impact children's understanding and perception of, and engagement in, the social world around them.
