      I’m going to be diplomatic about this one. I think you should vote for the psychologist that inspires you the most. If that is one of the others, then brilliant. If “I’m a Scientist” means that you learn something from one of the psychologists that inspires you to chase your dream career, then it has been worth it for all of us! That is better than any vote!

      … but of course you should vote for me 😉

      Similar to what Noel said, I think you should vote for whoever you find most interesting or has helped/engaged you the most. I’m a scientist is all about us the ‘scientists’ engaging with students and show you what motivates us to study science. If that makes someone who has took part in this go pursue a career in science, we’d all be made up with that! That being said I won’t complain, if you vote for me 😉

      I’d have to echo what Sam and Noel have said. I don’t feel in competition with the other psychologists. I was keen to take part in this in order to inspire the next generation to get involved in psychology. I would have loved to have had the opportunity to take part in something like this when I was younger to help me make decisions about what to do. I am just pleased I can answer your questions to help you on your chosen career path

      Sorry to repeat what everyone else has said but it’s definitely a case of voting for who you find most interesting and inspiring! The fantastic thing about this zone is that the research carried out by all the different scientists is so varied and interesting, I think it’s such as fantastic way to learn about all the career options available in psychology! I really hope you have a great time during I’m a Scientist and learn some new things – I’m enjoying every minute of it so far!
