Jack Brett is currently studying the combined Master/PhD in Clinical Neuropsychology at the University of Western Australia. Jack’s doctoral research focuses on exploring and understanding empathy within individuals on the autism spectrum. His research also examines whether improving individual’s understanding of their own emotions (alexithymia) and improving emotion regulation may have carry on effects such as improving mental health and empathic outcomes. Jack is interested in research with neurodevelopmental conditions and how to best support and reduce stigma for these individuals and their families. He also has a keen interest in quantitative statistical analyses (especially psychometrics). Jack is interested in working clinically as a paediatric clinical neuropsychologist.
