His love of teaching and commitment to scientific psychology has helped shape the psychology department’s research-based curriculum and culture. He (with Dr. Vandiver) was awarded two National Science Foundation grants to enhance the technology in the psychology department’s curriculum. He holds a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology from the University of Houston, with additional specialties in research methods and statistics. He has consulted with various companies and non-profit agencies on the evaluation of educational and social programs, including the Writers in the Schools program. His research activities focus on applied cognitive psychology topics, such as creativity and educational performance, and often involve meta-analysis. He teaches courses in Foundations of Statistical Analysis, Experimental Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Perception, Psychology of Creativity, and Paranormal Psychology. |
