I was born and raised in American Fork, Utah. My missionary service was in the Western Canadian Mission. I attended the University of Utah, graduated from Brigham Young University with a B.S. degree and an M.S. degree, and obtained my PhD in psychology from McGill University in Montreal, Canada. I did post-doctoral work in mathematical psychology at University of Michigan.
Research Interests
My primary current research focus is the development of methods for neuropsychological measurement. In particular, our research team has been investigating the extraction of cognitive components from event-related potentials (EEG waves) as biomarkers for neuropsychiatric illnesses. We are currently working with Dr. Kyle Bills, the Associate Dean of Research at the Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine and his technical team analyze longitudinal EEG recordings and neuropsychological data continuously gathered from their patients.
I am also mentoring a small group of P492R students and P430R capstone students in doing research on vocal emotion using a very large corpus (11,387 recordings) of emotion vocalizations created as part of a recent dissertation in our lab.
Teaching Interests
Currently, my primary teaching areas are quantitative methods, and the history of psychology. Together with three colleagues, I wrote a graduate text in multivariate statistical methods, published by Wiley in 2012. Two colleagues and I, Joseph A. Olsen and C. Victor Bunderson, received the proof copy of chapter 1 in December 2022 and are submitting the final materials to John Wiley and Sons this month for our psychometrics book: Petr Blahus, Joseph A. Olsen, C. Victor Bunderson, and Bruce L. Brown, Psychometrics, Test Theory, and the Latent Factors Model.
