Clinical Interests: 

Prof. Harley鈥檚 research鈥痑ims 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鈥痚motions,鈥痓urnout, and鈥痟arassment. We apply psychological and educational theories using interdisciplinary research methods and leverage a wide range of technologies, including鈥痸irtual reality (VR)鈥痑nd鈥痑rtificial 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.听

Areas of interest: 

Surgical education, simulations, emotion regulation, burnout, medical technology, team training (e.g., communication, collaboration, leadership).听听
