Subject Area: Psychology
I graduated with BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Derby in 1998. I then went on to graduate from an MSc in Cognitive Psychology also at the University of Derby in 2001. My dissertation was on Belief Bias in Syllogistic reasoning, using a conclusion generation paradigm. I completed my Ph.D. in March 2007 and am employed as a Lecturer in the Psychology department. My PhD concerned strategies and processing in syllogistic reasoning using a computer based inspection time and process tracing methodology, in order to test current theories of syllogistic inference.
I am the programme leader for the MSc Psychology conversion programme and University Certificate in Psychology. I also lead modules on research methods and on the psychology of rationality.
I am also the Level 5 leader for psychology students.
Teaching responsibilities
I have a range of teaching responsibilities at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. These are predominantly focused on cognitive psychology and research methods.
Research interests
My research interests include deductive, inductive and probabilistic reasoning. I am also interested in bias and rationality in people's beliefs, decision making and inference. I am interested particularly in dual process accounts of reasoning, decision making and bias. I am also interested in critical thinking and argumentation in an academic context. More recently I have broadened my research interests and have become involved in projects exploring quality of life among carers.
