The Psychopathology Lifespan and Neuropsychology (PLAN) Laboratory is a CFI-funded research space directed by Dr. Maya Libben, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at UBC-Okanagan.
Research in the PLAN lab relies on neurocognitive methodological platforms such as eye-tracking, EEG, behavioural testing and neuropsychological assessment to better understand the cognitive aspects of psychopathology as well as functional outcome following stroke and brain injury.
Current research projects include 1) the use of neuropsychological assessment data to predict functional outcome in stroke 2) eye-tracking studies of hemispatial neglect and 3) the development of assessment and intervention programs for body dissatisfaction and eating disorders.
Research in the PLAN Lab covers a range of areas within both clinical psychology and neuropsychology
Masters and Doctoral students are enrolled in the clinical psychology program at UBCO and are engaged in research in clinical and/or neuro psychology.
PLAN Lab alumni who completed their Masters or Ph.D. in clinical psychology at UBCO and have since pursued careers in research, clinical practice, or further academic study.
Our undergraduate team includes Honours students, directed studies students, and student volunteers contributing to research in clinical and neuropsychology.
