Chad Dubé

Chad Dubé is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of South Florida, where he has been a faculty member since 2013, advancing from Assistant to Associate Professor in 2019. His research is centered on cognitive psychology, particularly in memory, perception, and decision-making. He completed his Ph.D. and M.S. in Cognitive Psychology at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, under Caren Rotello, and earned his B.S. in Psychology from Eastern Michigan University.

• Ph.D., Cognitive Psychology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst (2011)
• M.S., Cognitive Psychology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst (2009)
• B.S., Psychology, Eastern Michigan University (2006)

His research interests include recognition memory, signal detection theory, ROC analysis, visual short-term memory, alpha oscillations in attention and memory, and deductive reasoning. He employs quantitative and computational modeling approaches to investigate cognitive mechanisms underlying memory and perception.

The recent publications reflect a strong focus on theoretical and empirical investigations in memory and perception, particularly using signal detection and computational modeling frameworks. Key themes include central tendency effects, serial dependency, ensemble coding, and the statistical structure of memory representations. His work bridges experimental psychology with formal modeling and information theory.

Although no formal awards are listed in the provided text, his publication record in high-impact journals such as Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology and Journal of Memory and Language indicates scholarly recognition.
