MAX LARSSON SUNDQVIST
PhD

I defended my PhD thesis at Stockholm University in June 2017, and my work relates to memory and metacognition. More specifically, my research investigates the phenomenon known as the testing effect, and its possible underlying mechanisms. The aim of this research is to establish what it is that drives the testing effect.
 
Besides the work related to my dissertation, I also enjoy teaching at the Department of Psychology, where I have given lectures, seminars, and coordinated courses in cognitive psychology, social psychology, and statistics.
