  • Dr. Robert King (Psychology behind mass shooters)

    Dr. Robert King is a researcher in the School of Applied Psychology, University College Cork. He has a keen interest in various fields, including biological psychology, behavioural ecology, philosophy of mind, and research methods. He has a robust publication and consulting record, particularly in the realm of human sexual behavior, and serves as a regular reviewer for prestigious journals such as the Journal of Sexual Medicine, Archives of Sexual Behavior, Evolutionary Behavioural Science, and Journal of Evolutionary Psychology.

    He completed his PhD under the guidance of Jay Belsky, with a focus on fertility-related aspects of female sexual response. He's currently in the process of converting his research into a book to be published by Taylor & Francis. Notably, he holds an Erdos number of five, reflecting his academic connections and collaborations.

    His research endeavours revolve around applying a biological framework to the study of human behaviour. His interests span a wide range of topics, from examining the UK riots, spree killing, and bare-knuckle fighting traditions using behavioural ecology and life history theory, to investigating fertility-related aspects of human female sexual response, and exploring human dating preferences from a biological perspective. He has also integrated anthropological and archaeological research into his scholarly profile, with publications on how ice age art and myths can shed light on human sexual behaviour.
