Jason Arndt is a Professor of Psychology at Middlebury College. He came to Middlebury in 2002, after completing a post-doctoral fellowship at Carnegie Mellon University. He received a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Kansas, and a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His research examines the processes that underlie human memory, including why memory errors occur, how memory errors can be limited, and how emotion influences memory. His lab also has ongoing projects seeking to understand how social collaboration influences memory and how memory retrieval (taking a test) enhances memory. Research students in Professor Arndt's lab regularly attend regional and national conferences to present the lab's work, as documented on his CV, and the Psychology Department's list of faculty-student research collaborations. In addition to conducting research, he is currently serving on the editorial boards of Memory & Cognition and the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory and Cognition."
