Dr Brianna Le Busque

I hold a PhD in Psychology and I’m an Online Course Facilitator for the Bachelor of Psychology degree at UniSA Online. Since completing my PhD in 2020, my research focuses more broadly on social psychology (attitudes, knowledge, and behaviour) in different contexts. These include understanding sustainable behaviours, mental health benefits of nature, human attitudes and knowledge regarding conservation issues, research into the experiences of PhD students and other higher education students, and the influence of social and traditional media. I am a part of the Conservation Psychology and Applied Animal Behaviour research group and I supervise Honours and HDR students within the area of social psychology, conservation psychology, media influence, and student wellbeing. I have industry experience in marketing research where I applied various psychological theories to marketing and behaviour change. I enjoy using a range of research methodologies including mixed-methods surveys, interviews, and media content analysis.
