Drs. Matthew Hand and Jay Brown and their students presented eight different research projects between them at the Southwest Psychological Association’s annual conference in Houston. These projects involved a variety of topics including the use of virtual reality to improve memory and self-controlled decision-making.

The student copresenters included both current students (Brianna Jaramillo, Aminaa Munkhbayer, Raul Resendiz-Gonzalez, and Jennifer Van Kesteren) and students that have recently graduated (Khrista Doshier, Faviola Gonzalez, Kristin Mannino, Ashley Pell, and Annalaurel Tibbs). Both Raul Resendiz-Gonzalez and Annalaurel Tibbs were the primary presenters of research projects that they designed and completed as part of their Psychology Research Internships.
