Interests

My research investigates abilities, personality traits, and intra- and interpersonal processes that facilitate job performance and promote well-being. The focus of my first line of research is on emotional intelligence. The focus of my second line of research is on the antecedents and the consequences of counternormative behaviour in group contexts.
