Cecilie S. Traberg

Cecilie S. Traberg is a researcher at the Department of Psychology, School of the Biological Sciences, University of Cambridge, with a doctorate from the Department of Psychology at Cambridge and master's training in social cognition from University College London and biological science from Cambridge. Traberg's research focuses on psychological inoculation against misinformation, the mechanisms of persuasion and social influence, and interventions designed to reduce susceptibility to false information. Traberg has investigated how emotional responses, source credibility, political bias, and social cues affect misinformation acceptance, as well as the neural computations underlying strategic influence in social contexts. Recent work by Traberg has also examined the broader implications of artificial intelligence for research practices and the application of psychological science to countering the spread of misinformation in public discourse.
