Welcome! On this site you can find information about the
courses I am teaching, about the research that I do, and information about
research and internship opportunities available to students through working
in my lab.
In 1997 I received my doctoral degree in
Social-Personality Psychology (with a minor in Quantitative Psychology) from
the University of California at Riverside
(UCR). While there I studied
interpersonal interaction, accuracy in personality judgment, and emotional
experience in daily life (David Funder,
advisor, mentor, co-author, and friend).
At SUNY Cortland, my research continues to seek to understand the relationship among personality characteristics, emotional responding, and emotional experiences (as a dynamic system of psychological processes). Our social-cognitive neuroscience laboratory is equipped with a new state-of-the-art psychophysiological data acquisition system that displays socially-relevant visual information to participants and then records the timing and duration of their emotional responses, in milliseconds, using two major psychophysiological measurement instruments: (1) the electrodermal response (measurement of palm sweating), and (2) electroencephalogram (EEG; measurement of brain waves). For information about our current projects click on the “Research” link above, or you may access my vitae for more information. I would like to encourage students interested in personality psychology and/or social neuroscience to contact me for potential research and internship opportunities. |
