My research is primarily based within cognitive psychology and parapsychology, with an interest in belief-cognition interaction.

My research centres primarily on paranormal beliefs and experiences, investigating their relationship with aspects of cognition and wellbeing. This has been the focus of much of my research to date, with my doctoral thesis investigating the relationship between paranormal beliefs and executive functions. This resulted in a publication on the measurement of paranormal beliefs (scale development and validation), as well as a large-scale systematic review of over 30 years of research into paranormal beliefs and cognitive function. Alongside this, I supervise student projects at both undegraduate and masters level in similar areas of paranormal beliefs and experiences. Much of the statistical analyses I conduct as part of my research are run using R.

I also have recent interests in other aspects of cognition and neuropsychology, relating to interoception and the Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI).

Since November 2022, I have been engaged with lecturing at the University of Hertfordshire. My teaching focuses on quantitative and qualitative research methods, statistics, cognitive psychology, psychological testing, and developmental/social psychology. I have been Module Lead for 9 modules across 4 of our psychology degree programmes (both BSc and MSc) since joining the faculty in 2022.
