  mentoring_philosophy: 'My mentoring philosophy is to involve students in the research process at every step in an active and collaborative way to maximize their experiential learning. To do so, my goal is to create a safe work environment, clarify expectations and objectives linked to the project, maintain a clear and open communication, adjust my supervision style to the needs and goals of my students, challenge their critical thinking, and provide them with opportunities to develop independently with guidance.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'This research project will focus on developing and testing interventions aimed at promoting both the functioning and the well-being of romantic relationships. While the rates of divorce have been rising increasingly over the past decades, preliminary research suggests that the seeds of marital decay can be detected in automatic partner attitudes – the spontaneous affective reactions (or ‘gut feelings’) that people exhibit toward their partner in indirect measures (e.g., reaction-time tasks) but often seem unable or unwilling to report in direct measures (e.g., questionnaires). The goal of this project is to (a) examine how automatic partner attitudes develop over time and to (b) test whether interventions that target such attitudes can benefit couples. Specifically, we will test the efficacy of two different intervention procedures: one aiming to enhance automatic partner attitudes (i.e., engaging in self-expanding--novel and exciting--activities with one’s partner), and one aiming to enhance people’s ability to accept and regulate their automatic partner attitudes (i.e., mindfulness meditation training). The project will involve a wide variety of measures (e.g., implicit measures of partner attitudes, questionnaires, videotaped conversations, daily diaries). On the whole, this project will provide theoretical insights into the causal role of automatic partner attitudes in close relationships and also inform applied research about strategies that may effectively help couples and reliably benefit society.'

  research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: 'Research assistants will be involved in all stages of the research process and thus will take part in various tasks, including but not limited to: reviewing relevant literature, designing study material, implementing the study, recruiting and running participants, analyzing data, coding videotaped interactions of couples, interpreting and presenting the study results in both written and oral forms. On the whole, research assistants will be presented with a wide range of opportunities to learn from and contribute to the project, both under supervision and in autonomy.'
