SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium:  Consciousness
DESCRIPTION:Professor Jakob Hohwy\, Monash University.Bio:\nProfessor Jakob Hohwy is the Director of the Monash Centre for Consciousness & Contemplative Studies. M3CS received a $12M philanthropic grant from the Three Springs Foundation. The Centre aims to conducts philosophical\, neuroscientific and psychological research in consciousness and contemplative science. The Centre aims to make contemplative practices central to our conscious connection with each other and our environment\, helping us better solve the many challenges the world confronts.\nI conduct interdisciplinary research in the areas of philosophy\, psychology\, and neuroscience. In M3CS and in my Cognition & Philosophy Lab we study: the science of consciousness (what is consciousness\, how does it arise in the brain\, what is the nature of the self\, how do contemplative practices change the mind and connect to action?); theoretical neurobiology (what are the foundational principles of brain function\, what does that tell us about the human mind?); decision-making and rationality (what is rationality and how do we form rational decisions\, how can decisions be wise\, or compassionate?); psychiatry and neurology (understanding conditions such as autism\, substance abuse\, eating disorders\, borderline personality disorder\, Parkinson’s disease). I collaborate with neuroscientists and psychologists from Monash University and around the world.\nThis is a Hybrid event so you can join in person or via the Webinar link below:\nHEYDON LAURENCE LECTURE THEATRE 217 (DT ANDERSON) (You are encouraged to please wear a mask if attending in person)\nWebinar Link: https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/s/82271977002

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Social Cognition\, bench to clinic
DESCRIPTION:Dr Michelle Kelly\, Senior Lecturer\, School of Psychological Sciences\, University of NewcastleBio:\nDr Michelle Kelly is a Clinical Psychologist and a Senior Lecturer in the School of Psychological Sciences at the University of Newcastle. Her research focus is on social functioning in clinical groups including dementia and traumatic brain injury. She also works closely with carers of people with dementia and brain injury to support them in their roles. Michelle collaborates with researchers at the National Ageing Research Institute in Melbourne\, University of New South Wales and University College London in this work. She also work closely with clinicians in public health settings\, aged care service providers and not for profit organisations.\nAbstract:\nSocial cognition refers to the sum of processes that allow individuals to pay attention to and process other people’s emotions\, intentions and actions in order to behave in socially appropriate ways. This includes reading emotions from peoples facial expressions\, tone of voice and body language\, as well as utilising and applying social knowledge to understand\, predict and respond to others’ behaviour. Examination of social cognition occurs through self- and informant-report\, as well as more objective performance based tests and physiological measurement. Despite advances in assessment of social cognition and emerging evidence for treatment programs\, most clinicians still fail to examine this area of cognition\, and rarely is it treated. This has implications for personal and workplace relationships. In this talk I will discuss some of the work we are doing\, from bench to the clinic and pose some potential solutions to these problems.\n \nThis is a Hybrid event so you can join in person or via the Webinar link below\nHEYDON LAURENCE LECTURE THEATRE 217 (DT ANDERSON) (You are encouraged to please wear a mask if attending in person)\nWebinar Link: https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/s/87591868247

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Visual Perception and Metacognition
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Derek Arnold\, University of QueenslandAbstract:\nWhen people make decisions\, they experience a level of confidence in relation to their decisions. In visual perception\, these levels of confidence are typically accurate – we tend to be more confident about decisions that are more precise. This insight into the quality of the information that has informed our decisions is known as metacognitive sensitivity. The most popular means of estimating metacognitive sensitivity is based on signal-detection-theory (SDT). In this talk\, I will explain why I believe SDT-based analyses of confidence are fundamentally flawed. I will also outline how measures of confidence can be used as a research tool\, to help distinguish between situations where perception has been changed and situations where people have merely been biased to reach different conclusions about perceptually ambiguous inputs.\nBio: \nProf. Derek Arnold studied at Macquarie University before taking up positions as a postdoctoral research fellow at University College London and the University of Sydney. He took up a continuing position at the University of Queensland in 2006. He has held a sequence of ARC funded research fellowships and Discovery Project funding. He has published in some of the world’s leading outlets for perceptual neuroscience\, including Nature\, PNAS\, Current Biology and Proceedings of the R. Soc. Lond. B. His’ research broadly focusses on visual perception\, with specific focuses on temporal perception and confidence in perceptual decisions.\nThis is a Hybrid event so you can join in person or via the Webinar link below:\nHEYDON LAURENCE LECTURE THEATRE 217 (DT ANDERSON) (You are encouraged to please wear a mask if attending in person)\nWebinar Link:  https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/s/83403319532
