Keith D. Markman, PhD, is an associate professor of psychology at Ohio University, where he is a member of the social judgment and behavioral decision-making program. Dr. Markman received his doctorate in 1994 at Indiana University and completed a 3-year postdoctoral fellowship at The Ohio State University. He conducts research in the areas of counterfactual thinking, creativity, and psychological momentum and has published over 40 articles and book chapters in these areas. Dr. Markman is currently an associate editor of Social and Personality Psychology Compass, was nominated for the 2003 Theoretical Innovation Prize in social and personality psychology, and won the Outstanding Junior Faculty Award at Ohio University in 2004.

Travis Proulx, PhD, is an assistant professor in the Department of Social Psychology at Tilburg University's School of Social and Behavioral Sciences in Tilburg, Netherlands.

He subsequently completed a postdoctoral fellowship in social psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Drawing from these diverse perspectives, Dr. Proulx has worked in collaboration on the meaning maintenance model — a discipline-spanning framework that offers an integrated account of inconsistency compensation phenomena. His research focuses on the common ways that people respond to a wide array of meaning violations, ranging from absurdist humor to the absurdity of human mortality. Matthew J. Lindberg, PhD, is a visiting researcher in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Lindberg received his doctorate in 2010 at Ohio University and subsequently joined the Department of Psychology at Fayetteville State University as an assistant professor.

Dr. Lindberg has conducted research on counterfactual thinking, creativity, meaning, conscious and unconscious thinking, and jury decision-making.
