The Canisius Identity Development Lab uses mixed methods to understand developmental processes in the content and clarity of individual identity.
Canisius Memory and Cognition Lab (C-MAC): Charles Goodsell
Our research focuses on using knowledge of human memory and decision making, and applying it to real world problems like eyewitness identification. Students working in C-MAC get experience conducting research, reading scientific articles, managing data, and presenting results of studies at conferences.
