Dr. Moritz Dechamps is a Lecturer and Post-Doc researcher at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU Munich) in the Department of General Psychology II, specializing in Motivation and Emotion. He held an interim professorship for Personality and Educational Psychology in 2021. His research focuses on mind-matter interactions, consciousness studies, and the replicability of quantum-based psychological phenomena. He teaches courses such as 'Vertiefung in Allgemeine Psychologie II' and 'Special Issues in Cognition, Emotion, Learning and Development.'

Education: B.Sc. Psychology (2012), M.Sc. Clinical Psychology and Cognitive Neurosciences (2015), Ph.D. in Philosophy (2019) from LMU Munich. His doctoral thesis explored 'Mind-Matter Interactions and Their Reproducibility.'

Research interests include subjective vs. objective reality, expectancy effects, and non-linear effects in psychological phenomena. His work frequently intersects quantum mechanics and consciousness, with a focus on experimental validation and replication challenges.

Key trends in his articles (2018–2024) involve testing micro-psi phenomena, observer effects on quantum systems, and methodological rigor in parapsychological research. He co-developed the changeofevidence R package for analyzing evidence volatility.

His research emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration, with contributions to journals like Journal of Anomalous Experience and Cognition and Frontiers in Psychology. He actively presents at conferences such as the Parapsychological Association and SSE & IRVA Joint Conferences.
