Change Detection Research Interests
I am interested in the characteristics of visual representations used in change detection. I am also interested in peoples' beliefs about their ability to detect changes, change blindness blindness. In particular, I have looked at peoples' beliefs about the role of intention in detecting changes. In future research I plan to investigate peoples' beliefs about the stability of objects' identity and features and the role these beliefs play in change detection and change blindness blindness.

Other Research Interests
Metacognition, Memory


Change Detection Publications
Beck, M. R. & Levin, D. T. (in review) The role of representational volatility in recognizing pre- and postchange objects.
