معرفی
Jens Kreitewolf is a Faculty Lecturer in the Departments of Psychology and Mathematics and Statistics at McGill University. He teaches courses in statistics, research methodology, and psychophysics. His research focuses on auditory cognition, speech comprehension, and the neural mechanisms underlying voice perception. Dr. Kreitewolf holds a Ph.D. (Dr. rer. nat.) from Humboldt University of Berlin and completed postdoctoral fellowships at BRAMS and the University of Lübeck. His work combines experimental psychology, neuroimaging, and psychophysics to explore auditory processing challenges in adverse listening conditions. Key interests include how familiarity with a talker’s voice aids comprehension and the impact of hearing impairment on speech perception.
Education: M.Sc. in Psychology (Ruhr University Bochum, 2009); Ph.D. in Psychology (Humboldt University of Berlin, 2014).
Research Interests:
- Auditory scene analysis and speech-in-noise processing
- Voice recognition and familiarity effects
- Neural correlates of perceptual decision-making
- Circadian rhythms and perceptual sensitivity
- Cognitive neuroscience of auditory attention
Publications highlight contributions to understanding:
- Risk factors for depression symptom progression
- Self-concept clarity in romantic evaluations
- Neurobiological mechanisms of working memory vulnerability
- Vestibular symptoms in migraine patients
His interdisciplinary approach bridges psychology, statistics, and neuroscience, with applications to clinical populations and sensory processing disorders.
