Research Interests

Some questions that my research focuses on:

• What individual differences (e.g., attachment orientations, self-construal) predict whether bicultural and migrant individuals experience rejection from their heritage culture? How does rejection of their heritage culture identity link to their well-being?
• What is the role of nostalgia as a method of coping for bicultural and migrant individuals?
• What individual differences predict online prosocial and antisocial behaviour?
• What role does culture play in forensic settings?
