Dr Heather Shaw
Lecturer in PsychologyResearch Overview
My research is at the intersect of Psychology and Behavioural Analytics.
I have centered my research around 5 key themes:
- Psychological, behavioural, and situational profiling using ambulatory assessment and digital footprints.
- How situations impact peoples psychology and behaviours, and how we can develop context aware technologies.
- Technology adoption, drivers of continued technology use, and how technology impacts users.
- Theories of behaviour consistency and change, advocating the need to understand rates of change.
- Interpretable machine learning to model non-linear relations and interactions
