About Me:
My Name is Paige Higgins-Powell and I am a third year student at the University of Canberra studying a double degree in Science Psychology and Politics and International Relations. My choice of study reflects my desire to gain an understanding of the complexities of human behaviour in conjunction with global affairs.

I am a student enrolled in the Unit Motivation and Emotion for 2020.

My Interests:
Inside my studies i am most passionate about investigating:


 * Trauma responses and treatment (particularly in children/adolescence/ young adulthood
 * Pain Thresholds
 * Psychopathology
 * Personality Psychology
 * The Dark Triad (Machiavellianism, Psychopathy and Narcissism)
 * Abuse motivation
 * Particularly sexual abuse
 * Rape culture
 * Feminism
 * Constructivist Perspectives

Aside from study i enjoy:


 * Grabbing coffee with friends (I do this far too often)
 * Escaping to the coast, absolutely love the beach
 * Sleeping in
 * Daydreaming
