SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: A/Prof Garner Clancey (USYD Law)
DESCRIPTION:A/Prof Garner Clancey (USYD Law) \nAbstract \nThis presentation will discuss (in brief) contemporary crime and justice trends. Criminal justice agencies (police\, courts\, corrections) are struggling with diverse issues\, many which would benefit from collaboration with universities. Experiences gained in recent years through work of the fledgling University of Sydney Justice Collaboration will be discussed\, with particular focus on what this might mean for the School of Psychology staff and students. The trials\, tribulations and opportunities for criminal justice industry engagement and whole-of-university responses to criminal justice issues will be discussed. \nBio \nDr Garner Clancey\, Associate Professor of Criminology\, University of Sydney Law School and Director\, University of Sydney Justice Collaboration. \nBefore joining the University of Sydney Law School in 2011\, Garner worked in criminal justice agencies (including Juvenile Justice NSW and the NSW Police Force) between 1992-2002 and worked as a crime prevention consultant between 2002-2010. Garner also taught crime prevention\, policing\, juvenile justice\, security and criminology courses at five other Australian universities between 2000 and 2011. Garner is working closely with industry partners and colleagues from across the University of Sydney to tackle various practical and systemic challenges impacting criminal justice systems.

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Dr Sophie Green (University of Leeds)
DESCRIPTION:Dr Sophie Green (University of Leeds)\n\nOptimising complex interventions in cancer using novel experimental designs\n\nAbstract\n\nComplex interventions are typically evaluated using a randomised controlled trial (RCT). While RCTs are suitable for establishing the overall effectiveness of an intervention\, they tell us little about which individual components of an intervention drive its success (or failure). The Multiphase Optimisation Strategy (MOST) is an engineering inspired framework designed to optimise complex interventions. By using highly efficient\, fully powered experimental designs\, MOST guides the optimisation of interventions that are more effective\, efficient\, affordable and scalable. Crucially\, MOST offers potential to understand how and why interventions work\, helping to accelerate scientific progress.\n\nIn this talk\, Sophie will introduce the MOST framework\, highlighting its benefits and the innovative experimental designs it advocates. She will illustrate these concepts by drawing on examples from a large programme of research aimed at developing and optimising a behavioural intervention to support medication adherence in women with breast cancer (the ROSETA trial)\, guided by the MOST framework. Sophie will also discuss exciting future applications of MOST\, including the potential to optimise psychological interventions—such as those targeting fear of cancer recurrence—to deepen our understanding of their mechanisms of effect.\n\nBio\n\nDr Sophie Green is a senior research fellow at the University of Leeds UK\, with an academic background in behavioural science and psychology and a clinical background as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner. Sophie’s overarching research interests focus on the development\, optimisation and evaluation of behavioural and psychological interventions to support people living with cancer. Sophie has worked across a number of randomised controlled trials and optimisation trials\, predominantly focused on improving medication adherence and quality of life in women with breast cancer. She is currently funded by a National Institute of Health Research Development and Skills Enhancement Award\, within which she is exploring how secondary analyses of optimisation trials can enhance our understanding of how complex interventions work and for whom.\n\n

SUMMARY:Psychology Colloquium: Prof Sally Andrews Memorial Lecture on Cognitive Psychology: Prof Erik Reichle (Macquarie University)
DESCRIPTION:Professor Erik Reichle (Macquarie University) \n\n\n\nProfessor Sally Andrews Memorial Lecture on Cognitive Psychology: Towards a Model of the Reconstructed Self \n\n\n\nAbstract \n\n\n\nOur sense of self is dependent upon our experiences and how the “thread” of our autobiography is reconstructed from memories of our contextually rich experiences.  In this talk\, I will describe how an instance-based model of human memory\, MINERVA 2 (Hintzman\, 1986)\, can be used as a framework for understanding how this happens.  I will report simulations that show how autobiographical sequences can be generated from discrete memories of unrelated episodes\, and how the basic processes of encoding\, storage\, and retrieval can give rise to distortions of self (e.g.\, dissociative identity disorder; Boag\, 2024). \n\n\n\nBio \n\n\n\nErik D. Reichle received a BS in psychology from Iowa State University and a PhD in cognitive psychology from the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst.  Since 2017\, he has worked at Macquarie University where he is a professor of cognitive psychology.  His research uses computer modelling\, eye-tracking\, and brain-imaging to understand the mental processes that support skilled reading and how those processes are influenced by languages and writing systems.  He has published more than 120 articles on these topics and has recently authored two books: Computational models of reading: A handbook (Oxford University Press) in 2021\, and The psychology of reading: Insights from Chinese (Cambridge University Press) in 2024.
