Social Profile:

Kansas State University
PhD Candidate, Department of Psychological Sciences
PhD Candidate in Cogntive Psychology with an emphasis on Language Processing, foreign language learning, memory, stress, attention, mind and cognition, learning and epistemological beliefs, scholarship of teaching and learning.

Currently, I am researching the most recently proposed component in Baddeley’s WM model: the Episodic Buffer and how it impacts foreign language processing: either automatically or through conscious effort. The answer to this question may help bridge two opposing views (WM vs. LTWM) of how memory works in the short term.

Trends of Internationalization and Collaboration in American Psychology Journals: 1950-2010 (In Press)
Archives of Scientific Psychology
In recent years, there have been numerous calls for a greater internationalization within the field of psychology. With the introduction of the Internet in the 1990s, resources have become more accessible and communication gaps have become smaller as journals and documents from all over the world can be accessed more easily. Although there is some emerging evidence suggesting greater internationalization in psychology, the full extent to which internationalization has actually happened remains less clear. The present study sampled American journal articles from the years 1950-2010, taken across various high-impact journals in seven content areas of psychology, including those published by American Psychological Association (APA), Association for Psychological Sciences (APS), Psychonomic Society (PS), and other publishers. The results indicated that U.S. psychology journals are showing an increasingly greater proportion of international authors publishing in these journals, particularly in the last 30 years. Additional results on collaboration indicated that, while U.S. and non-U.S. collaborations are still relatively low in comparison to other collaborations, there has been an increase in multi-author collaborations over time. Possible reasons for observed results, as well as the benefits of the current study are also discussed.
