Sean H.K. Kang
I'm a post-doctoral research scholar in the
Department of Psychology at the University of California, San Diego. I work with Prof.
Hal Pashler, principal investigator of the
Learning, Attention, and Perception Laboratory, and my research focuses on applying the cognitive psychology of learning and memory to enhance educational practice. To find out more about my research interests, teaching, CV, etc., please click on the menu

Psych File
Drawer is a website created by Hal Pashler,
Bobbie
Spellman,
Alex
Holcombe, and me to help address the problem
of data "hiding" in (psychology) researchers' file drawers. The scientific
literature is susceptible to distortions due to the reluctance for publishing
failures to replicate. Please visit the website and consider posting the
results of (non)replication attempts!
Short Bio:
I was born and raised in Singapore, where I received my B.Soc.Sc. (Hon) from the
National University of Singapore. After a 1-year stint as a full-time research assistant at the
National Institute of Education (Singapore), I went on to pursue (post)graduate studies in psychology at
Washington University in St. Louis. I was in the Behaviour, Brain, and Cognition graduate programme, and belonged to the
Memory & Cognition Lab (with Prof. Kathleen McDermott as my primary mentor). I received my M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in 2006 and 2009, respectively.
