Kirby Maquire - Undergraduate BA Honours (Summer 2012)/NSERC USRA Student (Winter 2012)
Kirby Maguire is currently an Honours student and research assistant in the CHLD Lab. Research interests
include the topic of his undergraduate thesis, "The influence of warning instructions on perceived credibility,"
along with other forensic interviewing techniques, psycholinguistics, psychopathy, offender recidivism, and the broad domains
of eyewitness memory and testimony. Having completed an Honours degree in Philosophy, the intersection of that discipline with
psychology through the histories and theoretical motivations of various movements in the field is also of interest.
