My name is Arthur Hatton and I’m a grad student in psychology and a songwriter and performer.

In psychology, my research interests include the psychology of religion, religious extremism, terrorism, counter-terrorism, international and cross-cultural psychology, sexuality in religion, meditation, history and systems of psychology, and philosophy of mind.

Interested in religious minorities and religious persecution, on both the macro-level and on the level of the individual. Religious studies have included, but are not limited to, Mormonism, Islam, and Eastern Orthodoxy.

For more information about my work and educational history, please visit my LinkedIn page.

In music, I have released one album, Odes, and record at home.  You can find my music on Bandcamp, and fan pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Reverbnation. I am also the founder of Linescratchers, a group blog for musicians who are Latter-day Saints, and if you’re interested in the psychology of religion, my favorite is The Value of Saintliness. This website will feature my blog where I write about music, popular culture, and other things.
