Jodi Quas, Professor of Psychological Science at the University of California, Irvine, is a developmental psychologist who studies children’s, adolescents’, and adults’ memory for and recounting of childhood traumas, including sexual assault and other forms of violence exposure.
She and her collaborators are one of the few teams of scholars in the country with scientific data documenting how well adults remember childhood sexual assault and how their memory reports are shaped by characteristics in the adults and in their environment, initially and over time.
Her expertise spans the topics of eyewitness capabilities of children and adolescents, long-term memory for abuse, and the effects of different questioning strategies on reporting accuracy and completeness.
