John Logan is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Carleton University, affiliated with the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. He holds a Ph.D. from Indiana University. His research focuses on spoken language perception, non-native speech perception, and word recognition in children. His work bridges cognitive psychology, forensic psychology, and linguistics, examining how personality traits like psychopathy influence speech perception and emotional processing.
Dr. Logan's research explores the interplay between personality variables and speech perception mechanisms, particularly in contexts involving psychopathic traits, trauma, and non-native language acquisition. His recent studies investigate how psychopathy affects emotional recognition in spoken language and domestic abuse dynamics, while also analyzing disfluency patterns and vowel acoustics in speech production.
His research has contributed to understanding deficits in prosodic perception among individuals with psychopathic characteristics and developing interventions to improve emotion recognition. He also studies cognitive constraints in acquiring non-native phonemes and employs neuroimaging techniques to explore decision-making processes in gambling scenarios.
Though no specific awards or grants are listed, his extensive publication record reflects sustained contributions to speech perception, forensic psychology, and developmental cognitive science. Dr. Logan's work integrates experimental methods with computational analysis, addressing both theoretical and applied questions in language processing and mental health.
