David Shanks is Professor of Psychology at University College London. His research interests have covered many aspects of cognitive psychology, but particularly human learning and memory. He has published widely in this field and is the author of The Psychology of Associative Learning (1995) and (with Ben Newell and David Lagnado) Straight Choices: The Psychology of Decision Making (2007).
