Introduction
Wayne Warburton is a lecturer in developmental psychology and a registered psychologist, and is Deputy Director of the Children and Families Research Centre. He teaches on human development (in particular cognitive and personality development), aggressive behaviour, media psychology and psychotic illness. He convenes the PSY210 Human Development Unit and also convenes PSY399, the Capstone Unit for Psychology, which aims to help students integrate the knowledge from their psychology degree and to prepare for either work as a psychology practitioner or further study. Wayne is passionate about a civil society, well-functioning families and social policies that truly have regard to credible research findings.
Research Interests
Wayne primarily studies aggressive behaviour. His specific focus is on the effects of violent media, the development of aggressive patterns of thought (particularly those that link the notions of aggression and control), aggressive driving, links between personality styles and aggressive behaviour, and the links between social exclusion and aggression. Wayne also examines the development of a range of maladaptive patterns of thinking, and the home environments and parenting styles that are linked with these patterns. Most of Wayne's scholarly publications relate to aggressive behaviour in one form or another (see links below), and his most recent book (with Danya Braunstein) Growing up fast and furious: Reviewing the impacts of violent and sexualised media on children has been well received by both scholars and professionals who work with children.
Community Outreach
Wayne is involved in a number of outreach activities. These tend to be related to financial counselling, advocacy for low income and vulnerable consumers, and educating parents and professionals who work with children about media effects. Over the last 18 years Wayne has written and delivered many training courses and workshops for financial and gambling counsellors across Australia (financial counsellors specialise in advising low income families who are in financial trouble), and has worked most notably with Aboriginal Financial Counsellor Training in recent years. Wayne is also Editor of Sharkwatch, The Australian Financial Counselling journal (for gambling and financial counsellors across Australia).
Wayne has advocated for low income and vulnerable consumers on the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman governing council (2006-2012) and the Telstra Consumer Consultative Council Credit Management Working Group (2002-2010). He has more than 40 articles in professional and/or community interest journals and has given colloquia at a range of venues including the Australian Museum, the Advertising Standards Board and the Australian Communications and Media Authority Citizen Conversation series. Wayne has also given expert testimony at 3 Parliamentary enquiries, has co-authored statements of media psychology experts for the International Society for Research on Aggression and the US Supreme Court and was the co-convenor of the 1st to 3rd Australian Conferences on Children and the Media. Wayne is a spokesperson for the Australian Council for Children and the Media and strongly encourages healthy media use.
