Jason Rajsic is a Lecturer in Psychology at Northumbria University, specializing in cognitive processes related to attention and memory. He completed his MSc at Queen's University (Canada) and PhD at the University of Toronto, followed by postdoctoral research at Vanderbilt University. His work employs behavioral measures, eye-tracking, and EEG to study how humans selectively process visual information. Research focuses include attentional control, working memory, and perceptual decision-making. Education: PhD in Psychology (2017, University of Toronto), MSc (Queen's University), Postdoc at Vanderbilt University (2017–2019). Joined Northumbria in 2019. Research interests emphasize understanding cognitive mechanisms behind selective attention and memory, particularly in contexts like visual search and task performance. His studies explore how top-down expectations influence distraction and how memory templates aid distractor rejection. Key methodologies include electrophysiological recordings and behavioral experiments. Publications highlight contributions to health sciences (e.g., AI in CPR skill assessment) and fundamental cognitive processes. Collaborations involve interdisciplinary teams addressing applications in healthcare education and sports psychology.
