Jennifer J. Freyd (16 October 1957, Providence, Rhode Island) is an American psychologist, Professor of Psychology at the University of Oregon,[1] and editor of the Journal of Trauma & Dissociation.[2] Freyd is known for her theories of dynamic mental representations[3] and shareability[4] and her discovery of the phenomenon of representational momentum.[5] Freyd has published over 150 articles. She is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association, the American Psychological Society, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

In the last two decades, Freyd has researched and written extensively on sexual abuse and memory,[6] the ethics of research on trauma,[7] and developed the concept of betrayal trauma.[8][9] In light of President Barack Obama's initiative to protect students from sexual assault,[10] Freyd's work on institutional betrayal,[11] conducted in collaboration with PhD student Carly P. Smith, has documented that this type of betrayal exacerbates the psychological impact of sexual violence, including increased anxiety, dissociation, and sexual dysfunction.[12] More recent work has pointed to health correlates of institutional betrayal,[13] indicating that institutional betrayal is associated with physical as well as psychological distress, in keeping with Freyd's Betrayal Trauma Theory. Together, Smith and Freyd developed the Institutional Betrayal Questionnaire, now in its second edition, to measure institutional betrayal across a variety of institutional contexts. Their work has been also been applied to judicial settings,[14][15] to explain the harm that may arise from engaging with legal systems in cases of sexual violence.

Biography

In 1979, Freyd earned a B.A. in anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1983 earned a Ph.D. in Psychology at Stanford University. From 1983 to 1987, she was an assistant professor at Cornell University, and since 1987 has been at the University of Oregon.[16] Awards and honors received by Freyd include the Association for Women in Psychology's 1997 Distinguished Publication Award, the Presidential Young Investigator Award from the National Science Foundation, and twice the Pierre Janet Award from the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation.[17] In 2011, Freyd won the Award for Outstanding Service to the Field of Trauma Psychology from Division 56 (Trauma Psychology] of the American Psychological Association.[18]

As an adult in the early 1990s, Freyd privately accused her father of abusing her during her childhood. Her parents co-founded the False Memory Syndrome Foundation to dispute Freyd's claims and the claims of others who they allege may have recovered false memories of childhood abuse in therapy.[19]
