About
Hi, I’m Stephen.
Assistant Professor of Psychology at St. Xavier's College (Autonomous), Ahmedabad, PhD researcher in psychology, and the person behind PsychSimplified. I am passionate about teaching, research, and making psychology more accessible.
Why this site exists
Over the years of teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students, I have seen the same challenge repeatedly: statistics is often approached with fear rather than curiosity. Many students struggle to choose the right statistical tests, use analyses without understanding what they actually do, or view statistics as a hurdle instead of a tool for answering meaningful research questions.
This website was created to change that. My goal is to simplify statistics and research methods, helping students build confidence and truly understand the “why” behind the numbers.
Beyond statistics, this will remain an evolving space where I’ll share thought-provoking research, psychological perspectives, discussions of interesting studies, and the occasional opportunity to geek out over fascinating ideas in psychology. Whether you’re a student, researcher, or simply curious about the human mind, I hope you’ll find something here that sparks your curiosity and makes you love psychology even more.
