Senior Lecturer in Psychology, Manchester Metropolitan University I am a Senior Lecturer in Psychology and the Undergraduate Psychology Programme Leader at Manchester Metropolitan University. My current research focuses on juror wellbeing and decision making. My research interests lie in the provision of witness evidence. I am particularly interested in how evidence is provided in court, and the way in which jurors understand, evaluate and use evidence in their decision making process. I have provided expert consultancy to a number of charities and organisations on the themes of witness and offender behaviour. For example, I have completed consultancy work for the charity InsideJustice examining potential false convictions in the UK criminal Justice System. Previous consultancy work involved working with the British Transport Police in the development of stop-and-search and counter-terrorism police training courses.
Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Texas A&M University Dr. Heather C. Lench is a professor for the Texas A&M Department of Psychology and the Senior Associate Vice president for Faculty Affairs. On top of being an accomplished teacher, scholar, and mentor, Dr. Lench is the Director and Principle Investigator for the Emotion Science Lab. The underlying premise of the Emotion Science Lab research is that emotional processes are the foundation of behavior and thought. We examine the role of affective reactions and emotions in how people think about the future and what they think will happen to them in the future. We are also investigating when and why particular emotions might improve functioning and decision-making.
