Faculty Members

Growing with Brock is made up of five faculty members from the Psychology Department. 

Karen Campbell, Ph.D.

ASSOCIATE Professor, Department of Psychology
Canada Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging

Dr. Campbell's research aims to understand how the mind and brain change during the course of normal aging. Specifically, she is interested in how age differences in attentional control, or the ability to limit one’s attention to goal-relevant information and ignore distraction, affects memory for past events.

Angela Evans, Ph.D.

Associate Professor, Department of Psychology

Dr. Evans' research examines how social and cognitive development across the lifespan influences our social behaviours. For example, how to talk to children to obtain the most honest and accurate reports about events they have experienced and how their developing minds influence their reports.

Caitlin Mahy, Ph.D.

Associate Professor, Department of Psychology
Director of Growing with Brock

Dr. Mahy is interested in the development of memory and future-oriented thinking in young children and in older adults. Specifically, she is interested in prospective memory, the ability to remember to perform future intentions, and how this is related to self-regulation in early childhood. This work gives us a better picture of future-oriented cognition and how it changes across the lifespan.

Cathy Mondloch, Ph.D.

Professor, Department of Psychology

Dr. Mondloch is interested in how experience across the lifespan influences our ability to perceive identity and emotion in human faces. She is especially interested in how the ability to recognize identity across multiple photographs changes across the lifespan and is impacted by experience with a specific person and the category to which the person belongs. Her work has implications for eyewitness testimony and the security industry.
