Project |01 What are the Factors that Influence Successful Students?
​

One of my main research interests is what motivational, environmental, and genetic factors influence learning, cognition, and performance in academic settings. Can low-performing students develop self-regulatory skills? Do post-secondary honors programs provide an effective learning environment for high-ability students?

Project |02 Do We Have a Tendency to Suppress Creativity?
​

Research indicates that working groups tend to percieve individuals with novel ideas as "deviant" and maladaptive in maintaining the status quo. Does this attitude lead to a suppression of creative expression? Do more of us possess creative abilities than we believe? How can we nurture creativity and reduce the stigma associated with its expression?

Project |03 Does our Native Language Influence our Attributions?
​

Recent research indicates that agentive (e.g., English) and non-agentive (e.g., Spanish) languages may influence cognition in unique ways. Could agentive and non-agentive language patterns moderate the relationship between attributional style and academic outcomes?

Just a sample of my work. To see more or discuss possible work >>
