Jennifer Freyd
Jennifer J. Freyd is an American psychologist, Professor of Psychology at the University of Oregon,[1] and editor of the Journal of Trauma & Dissociation.[2] Freyd is known for her theories of dynamic mental representations[3] and shareability[4] and her discovery of the phenomenon of representational momentum.[5]
In the last two decades, Freyd has researched and written extensively on sexual abuse and memory,[6] the ethics of research on trauma,[7] and developed the concept of betrayal trauma.[8][9]
Biography
In 1979, Freyd earned a B.A. in anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1983 earned a Ph.D. in Psychology at Stanford University. From 1983 to 1987, she was an assistant professor at Cornell University, and since 1987 has been at the University of Oregon.[10] Awards and honors received by Freyd include the Association of Women in Psychology's 1997 Distinguished Publication Award, the Presidential Young Investigator Award from the National Science Foundation, and twice the Pierre Janet Award from the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation.[11]
As an adult in the early 1990s, Freyd privately accused her father of abusing her during her childhood. Her parents co-founded the False Memory Syndrome Foundation to dispute Freyd's claims and the claims of others who they allege may have recovered false memories of childhood abuse in therapy.[12]
