Stephen Hill

(He/him)

I am a cognitive psychologist with a particular interest in the ways in which people rely on their environments when they remember, reason, and make decisions. A good part of my research focuses on people’s metacognitive judgements about the role of the environment in their thinking and the cognitive biases and implicit assumptions that underpin these judgements. Currently I am studying beliefs about ‘hot topics’ such as conspiracies, urban myths, climate change, and juror decision making.
