GPEP Graduation 20/21

21/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Congratulations to Noorfaadhilah Abdul Halil Khan on her M.Soc.Sci. degree! Faadhilah is currently part of the teaching staff in the Department of Psychology at NUS. For her thesis research, she examined antecedents to people’s interest in reasoning about the censorship of hate speech and misinformation. Her research demonstrated that the more people’s attitudes serve to express their core personal values, the greater their interest in relying on their beliefs and thoughts in their opinion on censorship. This work suggests that highlighting or reinforcing personal values can enhance reasoning about censorship among both anti- and pro-censorship individuals. We congratulate Faadhilah on accomplishing this interesting research on a timely issue!

SPSP 2020!

26/5/2020

With the generous funding from the National Research Foundation Singapore under its AI Singapore Programme, I was able to attend the Society for Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP) conference 2020 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Being the first international conference that I have attended, it was an eye-opener for me – being able to interact with professional social psychologists from around the world while learning about the different innovative research conducted in the social psychological field.

On the first day of the conference, there were many topic-focused pre-conferences that one can choose to attend. The “Attitudes and Social Influence” pre-conference was a clear choice for me as I wanted to learn and to be updated with the latest developments in this field. I am glad that I made this decision as the pre-conference was one of the highlights for me! I can still recall my excitement as I listened to the many presenters, including Prof. Leandre Fabrigar on how vocal pitch can influence persuasion, and from Prof. Sharon Shavitt on how cultural differences are an important consideration. The pre-conference had made it clear that being in GPEP has fostered a strong interest in attitudinal research in me!

Over the next two days, several symposiums and poster sessions were held relating to a wide range of topics presented by established social psychologists, graduate students, and undergraduate students. I was also able to present my work in one of the poster sessions that was done under the guidance of Prof. Michelle See. It was informative to see the different interesting attitudinal research, including those related to moral concerns and those that utilized a big-data approach.

Another exciting session was the SPSP presidential address which highlighted how Machine Learning can be one analysis approach to consider in future research. This made me realized the importance being updated with new cutting-edge research tools and methods to enhance the research work that we already have been doing.

Overall, SPSP 2020 was a great learning and gratifying experience. I would like to thank Prof Michelle See and the National Research Foundation Singapore again for their support!

Note: I was not affected by the Covid-19 virus prior, during, and after the SPSP2020 conference.

Connecting Virtually

Leveraging on video-communication technology, the GPEP lab have taken the necessary safety measures to ensure that the health of our lab members are not compromised while keeping to our regular lab meetings and discussions schedule amidst the Covid-19 global pandemic.

Today, our lab had our first virtual meeting via Zoom as Ann-Marie and Gareth shared with the lab on their honours thesis findings respectively. Despite being the first virtual lab meeting, the process was fun with many insightful questions and clarifications made.

The lab will continue to adopt measures to ensure that knowledge sharing can continue to happen while maintaining the health and the safety of our lab members and the community.
