Dr Jasmine Lee Kar Wye | Lecturer in Psychology
Dr Jasmine Lee received her PhD from the University of Nottingham in 2023. Her thesis was in the field of face recognition, specifically exploring the cognitive mechanisms (i.e., perception & attention) involved in self-face recognition. She used eye-tracking techniques and behavioral experimental paradigms to explore the self-face advantage phenomenon. Her current research centers on exploring topics that resonate with societal perceptions of beauty and self-perception, such as the pervasive influence of selfie-editing to the acceptance of cosmetic surgery and lookism. Through her work, she seeks to shed light on the complex interplay between societal norms, technological advancements, and individual well-being in shaping perceptions of beauty standards and personal identity.
Jasmine joined the School of Psychology and Clinical Language Sciences at the University of Reading Malaysia in 2023, where she is currently teaching various psychology modules at an undergraduate level
