Biography
I am currently assistant Professor of Psychometrics at the same department. My main research interests span the fields of personality psychology, psychological methods, and network analysis. My research has been focusing mainly on developing network analysis as a statistical and theoretical tool to model personality, with a specific focus on personality and its motivational systems. Additionally, I apply the network methodology to understand the structure and processes specific traits, namely conscientiousness and, more recently, thanks to a grant awarded by the Wake Forest University and the John Templeton Foundation (#61842), trait honesty. I am also interested in the psychometric measurement of personality, using both questionnaires and implicit measures. Other research interests include the relationships between personality, behavior, and psychological situations; creative problem solving; statistical power and scientific reproducibility.
