Hi, I'm Brandon Sparks and welcome to my page. I am a SSHRC-funded Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of New Brunswick. I earned my PhD in Psychology at the University of Saskatchewan where I also earned my MA in Applied Social Psychology. My research interests span the nexus of healthy and unhealthy relationships, with an emphasis in the role that technology plays in this. In particular, I am interested in how the digital landscape has influenced the ways in which people express their sexuality and how this has been used to harm others. I have also published extensively on incels, with an emphasis on their psychosocial well-being, identity development, and pornography use. I am also keen on community-based work, having completed a large-scale governmental project on the prevention of child sexual abuse and am currently undertaking a project on police responses to intimate partner violence calls to enhance victim experiences and evidence-gathering through trauma-informed practices.
