lecturer @RHULPsychology | attention, speech & hearing 🎧 🧠 | she/her
Briefly surfacing from mat leave to celebrate a new paper with
@adamtierney.bsky.social
, Fred Dick, and Lori Holt! We found that salient acoustic and linguistic features of task-irrelevant speech distort subjective time. Excited to see this work finally out there!

📄 New paper out! It’s long been known that listeners reweight acoustic cues in speech when cue reliability changes. Here
@adamtierney.bsky.social

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly.
