Overview

Catherine spent a year working with the Judgment and Decision Making Research Group at the University of Leicester, undertaking experiments on Stackelberg reasoning, Centipede games, the Prisoner’s Dilemma, and the qualitative analysis of reasoning in games. She then worked for 4.5 years at the Centre for Research in Ageing and Cognitive Health (REACH) at Bangor University (now based at the University of Exeter), working on a multi-centre randomised controlled trial examining the clinical and cost-effectiveness of goal-oriented cognitive rehabilitation for people with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease or vascular or mixed dementia, and their carers (GREAT trial).
