Dr Mircea Zloteanu

About

I am an experimental psychology researcher interested in emotions, decision-making, user behaviour in the Sharing Economy, and deception detection. My research focuses on the behavioural cues used to ascertain if people are being truthful or deceptive. My work involves investigating differences in judgements and perceptions made alone or in groups, embodied effects on attention and information processing, the impact of situational factors on accuracy and bias, the production of deceptive facial expressions, and improving forensic interviewing practices. Recently, my research focuses on meta-research and meta-psychology, with a focus on methods, statistics, and open science.

I am also a Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society (BPS), and a member of the American Psychological Association (APA)

I am also the Faculty Research Ethics Lead (FREL) for FBSS.
