Abstract | Victor A. Benassi earned his bachelor's degree from California State College and his PhD in psychology from the City University of New York. After working in the Department of Psychology at California State University at Long Beach, he moved to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) in 1982. He is currently Professor of Psychology and Professor of College Teaching. He has been one of the leaders of his department's long-standing Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) component of the PhD program. In 2003, this program received recognition from the American Psychological Association's (APA) Board of Educational Affairs for its innovation and creativity. He has also played a part, along with several colleagues, in facilitating the development of UNH's academic program in college teaching. UNH received the 2002 Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for Faculty Development to Enhance Undergraduate Teaching (Certificate of Excellence) in recognition of this program. Benassi has received several awards within UNH for his scholarship and teaching and received the Charles L. Brewer Distinguished Teaching of Psychology Award from the American Psychological Foundation in 2003. His research has focused on judgment and belief, and he has published articles on belief in alleged paranormal phenomena, illusory control, and judgment of contingency. He also maintains an ongoing program of research with a colleague on teaching and learning at the college level. (Author). |
