SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Prof Robert Krueger (University of Minnesota)
DESCRIPTION:Prof Robert KruegerUniversity of Minnesota\nTitle: Empirical classification of psychopathology: The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) consortium \nAbstract: Traditionally psychopathology has been classified based on the publications of authoritative bodies\, such as the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (APA’s DSM).  Recently\, researchers have expressed an interest in basing classification more on data\, as opposed to authority.  This movement led to the formation of the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) consortium.  Working from data\, the HiTOP approach emphasizes dimensions of human individual differences that are arranged hierarchically\, as opposed to categories that are arranged based on traditional DSM chapter rubrics.  In this talk\, I will describe the origins and current status of the HiTOP approach\, as well as current and future HiTOP directions and priorities.

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Dr Steph Kershaw (Matilda Centre\, University of Sydney)
DESCRIPTION:Dr Steph KershawMatilda Centre\, University of Sydney\nTitle: A digital health initiative about crystal methamphetamine (‘ice’) \nAbstract:\nCrystal methamphetamine (‘ice’) presents not only a ‘substance use problem’ but also a mental health problem in Australia. Cracks in the Ice (CITI) is a digital public health initiative that was developed as part of a national response to concerns about the drug. Cracks in the Ice aims to provide evidence-based information and resources about ice to the Australian community including people who use ice\, families & friends\, community members and health workers. In 2019\, a large scale online national survey was conducted to assess participants’ perceptions of the toolkit along with their knowledge and attitudes towards ice and the people who use it. This presentation will include an introduction to Cracks in the Ice\, as well as findings from the survey.

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Dr Adam Bulley School of Psychology and Brain and Mind Centre\, University of Sydney
DESCRIPTION:Dr Adam Bulley Adam Bulley is an NHMRC CJ Martin Fellow at the School of Psychology and Brain and Mind Centre\, University of Sydney\, and the Department of Psychology at Harvard University\nTitle: Making decisions about the future: lessons from research in prospection \nAbstract:\nAside from its role in remembering the past\, human memory also contributes to our capacity to think about and imagine what might happen in the future. This prospective cognition is a foundation of adaptive behaviour and serves multiple functions in everyday life. In this talk\, I will explore one such function: making flexible decisions that take delayed consequences into account. Trade-offs between sooner and later consequences are pervasive and consequential in human affairs\, arising in decisions about our finances\, health\, relationships\, politics\, the environment\, and in a range of other domains. A great deal of research has therefore attempted to leverage prospection to encourage patience across these domains\, and I will review the promise of those efforts. However\, I will also show why increasing patience is not necessarily a desirable goal and demonstrate how farsightedness can sometimes paradoxically encourage people to be less patient\, not more. Throughout\, I will draw lessons from the cognitive science of prospection for our understanding of impulsivity and self-control.\n \nAdam Bulley is an NHMRC CJ Martin Fellow at the School of Psychology and Brain and Mind Centre\, University of Sydney\, and the Department of Psychology at Harvard University. He completed his PhD at the University of Queensland in cognitive science before moving overseas for his postdoctoral research. He is now back in Australia and has recently joined the school here at the University of Sydney. His research focuses on how people imagine and make decisions about the future.  \n

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Prof Emily Cross (Macquarie University)
DESCRIPTION:Prof Emily CrossMacquarie University\nTitle:\nMind meets machine: Towards a cognitive science of human—machine interactions\nAbstract:\nAs robots advance from the pages and screens of science fiction into our homes\, hospitals\, and schools\, they are poised to take on increasingly social roles. Consequently\, the need to understand the mechanisms supporting human-machine interactions is becoming increasingly pressing\, and will require contributions from the social\, cognitive and brain sciences in order to make progress. In this talk\, we introduce a framework for studying the cognitive and brain mechanisms that support human-machine interactions\, leveraging advances made in social cognition and cognitive neuroscience to link different levels of description with relevant theory and methods. Also highlighted are unique features that make this endeavour particularly challenging (and rewarding) for brain and behavioural scientists. Overall\, the framework offers a way to conceptualize and study the cognitive science of human-machine interactions that respects the diversity of social machines\, individuals’ expectations and experiences\, and the structure and function of multiple cognitive and brain systems.
