My Research

In the Flow of Consciousness Lab (FoCL), my students and I are endeavouring to measure aspects of everyday thought, including the nature and frequency of off-task thought. Our lab follows open science practices (https://osf.io/) and I am a signatory of the Openness Initiative (https://opennessinitiative.org/). I approach my work as a Descriptive Psychologist (http://www.sdp.org/)
