Kameko Halfmann

I am an associate professor of psychology at a small, teaching-focused public university in the Midwest. I earned my PhD in neuroscience (cognitive track) at University of Iowa. I currently teach physiological psychology, general psychology, adulthood & aging, and research methods courses.

My research focuses on judgment and decision-making patterns. I am particularly interested in how we make decisions with psychologically distant consequences. For example, decisions related to sustainable behavior, health & substance use, and finances all play out over time, and I aim to better understand what drives individuals to make more future-oriented choices.  I am also interested scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) research, with specific interests collaborative and active learning.

Outside of work, I am an avid long distance runner, and I enjoy hiking, walking my dogs, canoeing/kayaking, gardening, cooking, and reading.
