Presented By

Megan Gilliver
PhD, BSc (Psych)

Megan Gilliver has a strong interest in the cognitive underpinnings of behaviour, and currently leads the National Acoustic Laboratories’ Behavioural Insights team. Her work at the National Acoustic Laboratories has included projects examining barriers to hearing rehabilitation, as well as understanding the motivators for promoting behaviour change for improved hearing health outcomes. A large part of her work has been in the area of hearing health promotion, examining factors that influence individuals’ decisions to reduce their noise exposure. She has a specific interest in leisure (non-occupational) noise where exposure is generally borne more from personal motivations and choice, rather than of the individual.
