Research

Research interests

Broadly, memory and cognition. I am especially interested in determinants of the subjective experience of remembering, source monitoring (the decision-making processes by which people identify the origins of memories), age-related changes in memory, and the application of theories concerning these processes to everyday memory phenomena (e.g., eyewitness memory).
