Research Interests
My research interests in lifespan developmental psychology focuses on emotional and cognitive development in adulthood and old age. For example, are older adults more easily influenced by emotions? Is an emotion such as sadness or fear qualitative the same in each phase of the lifespan? What are historical, cultural, and biological influences on emotional development across the lifespan?
