My research focuses on the applications of memory research to education. I am particularly interested in metacognition - i.e., the knowledge people have about how their own memory functions and how it can be improved.
For my PhD, I designed a new procedure for the rapid induction of false memory for pictures, and looked at false memory for pictures on an indirect test. False memory was my first research passion and I am continuing to do research in this area. |
