Dr Stephenie Pagoudis
Lecturer
School of Psychology
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
I'm a passionate Lecturer in the School of Psychology.
In 2021, I received an award for my teaching. I was the recipient of the University of Adelaide School of Psychology Excellence in Tutoring Award. I was nominated again for this award in 2023 and 2024.
My primary research interests involve social and educational psychology. I am broadly interested in power and relationship dynamics. My current research focuses on power in heterosexual romantic relationships. I am interested in how people's beliefs about and experiences of power impact them personally, as well as how these perceptions and experiences impact relationship functioning and quality. I am also interested in understanding the circumstances under which power can be undesirable. I undertake research using quantitative and qualitative methods.
