Dr Ivy Defoe

Dr. Defoe will collaborate with Professor Manuel Eisner on a meta-analysis investigating violent- versus non-violent offending. Additionally, they will conduct a longitudinal study investigating the (long-term) effects of online violence exposure on violence in real-life, as a test of her Developmental Neuro-Ecological Risk-taking Model (DNERM; Defoe, 2021 in Developmental Review). Dr. Defoe was a Visiting Scholar at the Institute in 2011 during her PhD, and she is excited to be back now as a Visiting Fellow.

Visiting: September 2025 - August 2026
