Meet one of our collaborators, Dr. Shari Berkowitz!
She is a Professor of Criminal Justice Administration at California State University.
Shari's research focuses on how people corroborate false beliefs and memories and how this relates to the legal system!
Was absolutely delighted to present at the 40th annual Joseph R Royce Research Conference on Friday. @UAlberta. Full circle moment as this is where I gave my first ever conference presentation way way back in 2003!
Have you seen our recent paper on eyewitness confidence? We found that White participants had better calibrated confidence when identifying White than Asian mock criminals. @QMUniversity
New paper from our lab! Congratulations @piapennekamp, @rhibarb_6 on this paper detailing how we created a new tool for improving the communication and interpretation of eyewitness confidence.

It's no longer snowy but it sure is windy...shout out to Jeff Kearns for capturing Lethbridge's wind so perfectly. My advice? Stay home and have hot chocolate...that sun isn't enough.
Welcome Kaytrin! Kaytrin is doing an independent study with the Mansour Lab this term and hopes to eventually earn a PhD in applied psychology. In her free time, Kaytrin dances, plays piano, writes, and binge-watches tv. 💃🎹✍️📺

Welcome Zahra!
Don't let this weather get you down! Make hot chocolate and read research!

Our @KellyGrannon represented the lab at this year's Women in STEM conference @uLethbridge.
Powered by coffee, she presented about her Master's research which examined false memories and beliefs from a cross-cultural perspective. Way to go Kelly!

June was a busy month for the lab! Dr Mansour also presented at the @OfficialSARMAC 2025 conference in beautiful Ireland. It was a great conference in a beautiful hotel where she got to catch up with lovely friends and colleagues.
