Adam is currently pursuing a psychology PhD from Auburn University. Previously, Adam has worked in applied behavior analysis settings with children with developmental disabilities such as Autism. Adam participated in the olfactory matching-to-sample project in the animal behavior laboratory, which looked specifically at the differences in learning due to exemplar amounts (large versus small set sizes) and oddity (non matching-to-sample) versus identity matching. His psychology interests range from learning and memory to perception, comparative cognition, olfactory versus visual learning, and the effect of training and procedural techniques on discrimination learning and acquisition.
