My research focuses on how the associations between personality and outcomes in the real world as well as processes associated with well-being. For example, my recent projects examined how personality traits assessed in adolescence are associated with behavioral outcomes at work in middle adulthood.
I also am interested in how individual differences in happiness could be explained by time spent in social activities or reward sensitivity.
Basically, I am interested in testing how personality is related to important outcomes and the processes underlying individual differences in positive emotional experience.
