Dr. Anne M. Sinatra is a Research Psychologist in the Learning in Intelligent Tutoring Environments (LITE) Lab within the U.S. Army DEVCOM Soldier Center Simulation and Training Technology Center. The focus of her research is in cognitive psychology, human factors psychology, and adaptive team tutoring. She has specific interest in how information relating to the self and about those that one is familiar with can aid in memory, recall, and tutoring. Her dissertation research evaluated the impact of using degraded speech and a familiar story on attention/recall in a dichotic listening task. Her post-doctoral work examined the self-reference effect and personalization in the context of computer-based tutoring. Her work has been published in journals including the Computers in Human Behavior, Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, and Interaction Studies. Her work has also been published in conference proceedings including the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society conference, and the Human Computer Interaction International conference. She additionally has served as an editor on five books (she was lead editor on three of them), and chaired three team tutoring workshops during the Artificial Intelligence in Education conferences in 2018, 2019, and 2021). Dr. Sinatra received her Ph.D. and M.A. in Applied Experimental and Human Factors Psychology, as well as her B.S. in Psychology from the University of Central Florida.
