Elizabeth Shulman is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Brock University. She earned her PhD from the University of California, Irvine. Her expertise lies in developmental psychology, specifically focusing on adolescence. Elizabeth's research examines psychosocial development during the transition from childhood to adulthood, particularly how it relates to decision-making and risk-taking behaviors, as well as issues surrounding juvenile justice. She investigates the normative developmental processes during adolescence and early adulthood, such as how these processes contribute to the rise and fall of risky behaviors during these critical periods. Additionally, her work addresses whether adolescent development is universal or shaped by cultural factors, and how scientific insights into adolescence can inform social and legal policy.
