Research

Embarking on an academic journey deeply rooted in the intricacies of mate copying, my scholarly pursuits began with an honours thesis that explored the contours of this fascinating topic, a passion that only deepened as I delved further into the subject for my Ph.D. thesis (Further Investigations of Mate Selection, Courtship and Female Beauty). Although my research might appear to be primarily focusedon the phenomenon of mate copying, my academic curiosity is far from narrow. I am profoundly engrossed in the expansive fields of psychology, from the nuances of human behavior, and the evolutionary underpinnings of social interactions, to the complexities of human mate selection and decision making. My interest spans the diverse landscapes of statistics, gender differences, sociobiology, and the multifaceted realm of social psychology, weaving through the strategic intricacies of game theory and the cognitive processes governing human thought. Recently, this curiosity has steered me toward the psychology of social and financial decision-making, marking a new chapter in my ongoing exploration of human nature and its myriad expressions.
