Kye Palmer
Higher Degree by Research Candidate
School of Psychology
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
I am a PhD candidate in the Develop Well Lab at the University of Adelaide, supervised by Dr Nicole Nelson and Dr Mark Kohler. My PhD research focuses on children's ability to understand and use emotions and emotional cues to interact with others. My research interests are broad, but I am primarily interested in areas related to social, developmental and cognitive psychology, particularly in early childhood through to adolescence.
My research focuses on the ways in which children learn about, understand, and communicate or express emotion through interaction with parents, siblings, and other adults or children. I am particularly interested in further exploring some of the complexities associated with emotions and facial expressivity, which are often not considered by classical theories of emotion.
