Trosolwyg

As an Endeavr Wales funded Human Factors Cyber Psychology PhD Student supervised by Professor Phil Morgan, I work as part of the Human Factors Excellence Research Group (HuFEx) at Cardiff University and with the Airbus Accelerator in Human-Centric Cyber Security. I also work as a Post-Graduate Tutor (PGT) mentoring 1st year Psychology Undergradute students to facilitate development with research skills and practical report writing, and have worked as a Final Year Module Assistant for the Decision Making module (PS3312) to deliver seminars encouraging critical discussion around key scientific articles and how findings can be applied to real life scenarios.

Using a multitude of experimental methods using various physiological and behaviour measures (e.g. pupil dilation, eye-tracking, online studies), I will be developing a series of experiments collecting objective and subjective data to advance our understanding of the risks and strengths of human decision making within workplace environments whereby cyber-security is highly important. This includes investigating the significance of workload factors such as time pressure and task difficulty, and their relationship with cybersecure behaviours. From this, interventions targeting specific maladaptive behaviours can be designed – thus attempting to bridge the gap between research and practice.

Conferences

Ymchwil

My main research interests are primarily related to Decision Making, Human Factors, and Cyber Psychology. For my PhD, I will be investigating factors that influence the risk of cyber-attack from a human-focused perspective such as cognitive effort, hard time constraints, and awareness of time stress in connection with potential individual vulnerabilities.

    Undergraduate final year project

    The effects of difficulty and reporting routine on subjective evaluation of task performance

    Previous research suggested when prior self-control resource depletion is present together with the opportunity to cheat, human participants exhibited dishonest behaviour in the form of over-reporting performance. However, it is unclear whether such behaviour persists when the source of resource depletion is the task itself. Using a between-subject design, I examined the effect of task difficulty and report routine on participants’ behavioural performance in a metrics task, as well as their subjective evaluations. I am currently continuing data collection for this project as a postgraduate, and exploring further related experiments in relation to my PhD.

    Forensic research placement

    Created and developed a systematic review examining literature identifying and evaluating clear relationships between modifiable aspects of child-parent contact whereby the parent is separated by means of incarceration without the need of specialist skills and children’s outcomes. Completed GCP training and attended advanced searching workshops. Presented research project at OHRN-C meetings, a Crime in Mind Seminar at East London NHS HQ, and the IAFMHS conference 2018 in Antwerp.

    Modifiable aspects of child-parent contacts after a parent is imprisoned: A systematic review

    Background: Large numbers of children across the world have at least one parent in prison for at least part of their childhood. Various harms have been attributed to that, although many factors are thought to confound these relationships. Many are hard to influence, but child contact arrangements should be an easy target for optimisation.

    Aims: To generate a list of child-parent prison contact conditions which would require no specialist delivery skills to modify and find out which have clear relationships with child outcomes.
