Biography

Nathan is a postdoctoral research associate in the Human Factors Applied Cognition lab, where he develops novel paradigms for attentional control training to enhance performance in submarine operators. His broader research interests lie at the intersection of human psychology, digital technologies, and artificial intelligence. Nathan's doctoral research investigates the psychological impact of Internet pornography addiction, employing innovative mathematical models to quantify the emotional dynamics produced by such behaviors. He is particularly interested in using Ecological Momentary Assessment (also known as Experience Sampling Method) to measure high-frequency variations in emotional states. As an extension of his research, Nathan created DecayBlock, a browser extension designed to help users self-regulate distractions from the Internet. Originally trained as a physicist at the University of Auckland, Nathan has also worked as a Medical Physics Registrar at the Auckland City Hospital and holds a Master’s degree in Medical Physics from the University of Canterbury.
