Alfred W. Kaszniak, Ph.D.

Emeritus Professor, Department of Psychology
University of Arizona

 As a retired emeritus professor in the Department of Psychology, I no longer teach courses, or maintain an active laboratory.

I remain involved in some collaborative research and in various writing projects. I also devote professional service to several organizations and scientific journals, and serve as a teacher (Sensei) of Zen Buddhism, both locally and nationally.

Research Interests: 

  • Psychophysiology and neuroscience of long-term and short-term meditation
  • Contemplative pedagogy
  • Contemplative approaches to end-of-life-care.
