SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Body\, Heart & Mind in Business: Creating Engaged and Collaborative Research Partnerships to Advance Knowledge on Well-Being & Performance at Work
DESCRIPTION:The Body\, Heart and Mind (BHM) in business is a large\, highly active research group in the University of Sydney Business School. Our research seeks to advance knowledge on employee health\, wellbeing and performance at work using rigorous\, multidisciplinary\, multimethod and multilevel methodologies. We are passionate about doing applied\, engaged research and work closely with organisations to help solve important practical questions and to advance theory and knowledge on how to maximise employee performance\, health and well-being at work. In this talk\, we will start with a behind the scenes look at how we have built the collaboration with our partners in health and the data we collect and we use the data to help build their capacity for evidence based practice. We will also discuss a paper using data collected from our industry collaboration. This study uses a dyadic design (nurse-patient interactions) to investigate the psychological factors that influence the process and successful transmission of compassion from one individual to another and extends practical insights into the malleable\, person-level levers to creating more compassionate interactions at work.Presenters: Helena Nguyen and Anya Johnson are Associate Professors at the University of Sydney Business School\, Work and organisational studies and Co-Directors of the Body Heart and Mind in Business (BHM) Research Group: http://sydney.edu.au/business/research/bhmb\nHelena Nguyen (helena.nguyen@sydney.edu.au) received her PhD and Masters of Organisational Psychology from School of Psychology\, University of New South Wales. Helena’s area of research expertise is in the areas of emotions at work and employees’ health and wellbeing. Her research aims to improve the lives of employees and the effectiveness of organisations by examining the factors that facilitate well-being and job performance. She is the recipient of several prestigious awards and grants\, such as Australian Research Council\, NHMRC and most recently\, as part of a team (including A/Professor Anya Johnson) received the Australian Business Deans Council (ABDC) 2020 Award for Innovation and Excellence in Research. Helena is also Associate Editor for the Australian Journal of Management and has published in leading journals including the Academy Management Journal\, Journal of Management\, British Journal of Management\, Annual Review of Organisational Psychology and Organisational Behaviour and the Journal of Service Research\nAssociate Professor Anya Johnson is Co-Director of the Body\, Heart and Mind in Business Research Group and Deputy Head of Discipline with Work and Organisational Studies at the University of Sydney Business School. She was awarded her PhD from Manchester University and her Masters in Organisational Psychology from Sheffield University in the UK and her Bachelors degree from the University of Western Australia. Anya’s research is in the area of Organisational Behaviour. Specifically\, Anya investigates how employees regulate their emotions and cognitions in the workplace\, and the relationship between the design of jobs and teams and outcomes such as engagement\, wellbeing and performance. Anya is Associate Editor for Group and Organization and her research has been published in journals such as the Academy of Management Journal\, Journal of Vocational Behaviour\, Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior\, Journal of Service Research\nZoom webinar at https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/j/81358411713

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: “Perception in real-time: predicting the present\, reconstructing the past”
DESCRIPTION:A/ProfHinze Hogendoorn\nPrincipal Research Fellow In Psychology\nMelbourne School of Psychological Sciences\nThe University of Melbourne\n \nAbstract:\nWe feel that we perceive events in the environment as they unfold in real-time. However\, this intuitive view of perception is impossible to implement in the nervous system due to biological constraints such as neural transmission delays. In this talk\, I will propose a new way of thinking about real-time perception\, in which perceptual mechanisms represent an entire timeline\, rather than individual timepoints. On this timeline\, predictive mechanisms predict ahead to compensate for delays in incoming sensory input\, and reconstruction mechanisms retroactively revise perception when those predictions do not come true. This addresses a crucial gap in our understanding of a fundamental aspect of our everyday life: how our brains enable the experience of perceiving the present.\nBio:\nI am a Principal Research Fellow at the Melbourne School of Psychological Science (University of Melbourne)\, where I lead the Time in Brain and Behaviour Laboratory. Previously\, I was Assistant Professor in the Department of Experimental Psychology at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. My primary research interests lie in the time-course of visual processing and visual perception. By combining psychophysical\, behavioural\, computational and neuroimaging techniques\, I investigate questions such as how the brain keeps track of time and how the brain functions in real-time. I am currently especially interested in how the brain solves the computational problems that result from its own internal delays.\nWebinar Link: https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/s/83347424497

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Causal investigations of cognitive training
DESCRIPTION:Dr Hannah FilmerThe University of Queensland\nAbstract:\nWhat happens in the brain during cognitive training? How can we maximise the benefits of training? Functional imaging has provided insights into the neural basis of training\, but this approach is correlational. An alternative is to use non-invasive brain stimulation which not only allows for causal inferences to be made\, but also has the potential to enhance performance outcomes. Here\, I will present my work using electrical brain stimulation to further our understanding of training both for single session and multi-session paradigms. Through a combination of group level and individual differences approaches\, and in combination with imaging (MRI and MRS) and computational modelling\, this work has provided insights into the regions and processes involved in training\, the potential to enhance training outcomes\, and the factors relating to individual differences in the efficacy of such approaches.\nAbout Dr Hannah Filmer:\nHannah is an ARC DECRA Research Fellow at The University of Queensland. Her research covers a range of themes\, including frontal lobe function\, brain training\, ageing\, and attention. She uses a variety of research methods\, namely brain stimulation (tDCS\, tRNS\, tACS\, TMS)\, imaging techniques (MRI\, MRS\, fMRI)\, cognitive paradigms\, and psychophysics. Hannah is a principle investigator of the Queensland Attention and Control lab\, and the president of the Australasian Brain Stimulation Society.\nWEBINAR LINK: https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/s/82914216825

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Expert Bias: Perceptions\, Misperceptions\, and Their Implications
DESCRIPTION:Tess Neal\, School of Social and Behavioral Sciences Arizona State University\nAbstract:\nDo experts assume that their expertise protects them from bias? One might hope and expect experts to be more protected than the average person against various psychological biases that affect judgment and decision making\, yet the evidence supporting this expectation of expert objectivity is mixed at best. Therefore\, this project answers the question: Do people have too much faith in the objectivity of expert judgment? Serious consequences might result from such an illusion of objectivity. We answer questions about experts’ susceptibility to bias as well as the accuracy of people’s (and especially experts’ own) perceptions of experts’ susceptibilities. Across multiple preregistered studies with different methods and in different decision domains\, we measure experts’ vulnerabilities to several biases\, document laypeople and experts’ blindness to experts’ biases\, and investigate the consequences of exaggerated confidence in experts’ objectivity for society. Theoretically-informed ideas for managing these problems will be discussed.\nBio:\nTess Neal is an associate professor of psychology at Arizona State University and a founding faculty member of ASU’s Law and Behavioral Science Initiative. She is a scientist\, a licensed clinical and forensic psychologist\, and a parent of two young children. She studies the nature and limits of expertise. Her basic work focuses on understanding and improving human judgment processes – especially among trained experts\, and her more applied work focuses on improving forensic experts’ judgments in particular. Her work has been funded by multiple grants from the National Science Foundation\, and she has been awarded numerous research and teaching awards. She serves as editor for the Journal of Personality Assessment and Psychology\, Public Policy\, and Law\, and as an Open Science Advisor for Clinical Psychological Science. She was selected as a Fulbright Scholar to work with Kristy Martire and others at UNSW Sydney for the Spring of 2022 on a project about how the different evidence laws of the U.S. and Australia lead to similar and different patterns of judicial decision making about psychological evidence\, with the potential to inform revisions to laws governing the admissibility of expert evidence in both countries.
