RESEARCH INTERESTS

My work to date has focused predominantly on the psychometric properties of emotional intelligence (EI) measures and the validity of ability and trait EI, and how both types of EI relate to borderline personality disorder (BPD). I am also interested in internet-mediated research.  

TEACHING

I teach a variety of lectures, workshops and statistics sessions.
