My main research interest is the effect of moods and emotions, particularly anxiety, on social cognition. I am also interested in other aspects of social psychology and social cognition including group behaviour and decision making, automatic processes, attitude change, social influence, and culture.
Outside these research interests, I have experience working in organisational psychology, human resources, organisational behaviour, and human factors.
