Research Interest
My research lies at the intersection of developmental psychology, cognitive aging, neuropsychology, and metacognition. I am particularly interested in how individuals monitor and evaluate their own cognitive abilities across the lifespan, with a current focus on metamemory, subjective memory, memory monitoring, and age-related differences in cognitive functioning.
My work combines experimental, longitudinal, and individual-differences approaches to examine the relationship between subjective cognitive evaluations and objective cognitive performance. I am also interested in neurodiversity and neuroinclusion, particularly in understanding attitudes toward neurodevelopmental conditions and the psychological factors associated with stigma, social distance, and inclusive attitudes. My broader research background in cognitive neuroscience and clinical neuropsychology informs this work and supports an interdisciplinary approach to cognition and development across adulthood.
