Vasileia Karasavva

I am a clinical psychology PhD student at the University of British Columbia under the supervision of Dr. Amori Mikami.

My research program focuses on issues of digital citizenship, or in other words, how we interact with the online world and the ways this impacts our lives. I am working on three inter-connected reserch streams (1) e-health literacy and health information seeking online (2) online sexual communication and consent, and (3) technology-facilitated sexual violence (e.g., deepfake/AI pornography, non-consensual intimate image dissemination).
