Prof. Harley鈥檚 research aims to enhance surgical and health professions education and support health care workers by reducing adverse events and inefficiencies, especially those associated with the incidence of undesirable and unregulated emotions, burnout, and harassment. We apply psychological and educational theories using interdisciplinary research methods and leverage a wide range of technologies, including virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI), to support the development of health professions competencies with novel technology-enhanced educational interventions and simulations. Our interdisciplinary research draws on mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative) that include both objective (e.g., skin conductance, facial recognition software, eyetracking) and subjective (self-report instruments, semi-structured interviews) measures of emotion and cognition that help us assess a variety of surgical and medical competencies.

Prof. Harley completed their FRQSC and SSHRC CGS-funded Ph.D. in Educational Psychology at 成人VR视频 in 2014. They held a postdoctoral fellow position in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Montreal (FRQSC postdoc award) from 2014-2015. Before returning to 成人VR视频, Prof. Harley was a tenure-track assistant professor in the Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Alberta and Director of the Computer-Human Interaction: Technology, Education, and Affect (CHI-TEA) Laboratory (2016-2019). In 2018, they won the Outstanding Early Career Researcher Award sponsored by the Technology, Instruction, Cognition, and Learning (TICL) SIG of the American Educational Research Association (AERA). As a faculty member and principle investigator, their research has been supported by multiple grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Killam Research Foundation, and MITACS. Prof. Harley serves on the editorial boards of the journals, Learning & Instruction (IF = 5.15) Educational Technology Research and Development (IF = 3.57), as well as on program committees for Artificial Intelligence in Education and Intelligent Tutoring Systems. Their research and teaching have led to appearances in The Guardian, CBC News, The Globe & Mail, Global News, CTV News, Radio-Canada: Le T茅l茅journal, The Montreal Gazette, The Toronto and Edmonton Star, The Edmonton Journal, and other broadcast and print media.
