Jared Walters serves as a Lecturer in Griffith University's School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, with active membership in the Griffith Criminology Institute (2025–present) and the Arts Education and Law Group. Based at Gold Coast Campus (G06 3.10), he can be contacted via jared.walters@griffith.edu.au or +61 (0)7 5552 7052.
His research program integrates moral psychology with criminal justice applications, examining emotional drivers of juror decision-making (particularly in sexual assault cases), interventions to reduce bias, and perceptions of deservedness. Complementary work explores nature exposure effects on child/adolescent cognition and higher education technology transitions, reflecting interdisciplinary engagement across psychology, criminology, and environmental science.
Recent publications (2022–2025) demonstrate methodological rigor through 8 systematic reviews/meta-analyses in top journals (e.g., Journal of Criminal Justice, Psychological Bulletin), covering juror bias, anxiety disorders, short-form video impacts, and nutrition-cognition relationships. This output reveals consistent focus on evidence synthesis for real-world justice applications, with notable citation impact (e.g., 21 citations for 2024 nature exposure study).

Regarding advising and resources, Dr. Walters' active publication record and Griffith Criminology Institute affiliation suggest robust research infrastructure. While explicit grant details aren't provided, his collaborative projects (e.g., with Nguyen L) indicate secured funding. Prospective students should inquire directly about supervision opportunities in moral psychology, juror bias mitigation, or nature-cognition research.
His primary research environment is the Griffith Criminology Institute, which facilitates interdisciplinary criminal justice scholarship through collaborative networks and theoretical innovation (e.g., Anthropocene implications). This affiliation provides students access to cutting-edge criminological research methodologies and practical applications in bias reduction and cognitive interventions.
