Cross-Cultural and Intercultural Psychology

Research Interests

My current interests are focused on the psychology of intercultural relations (including acculturation, immigration and multiculturalism). I continue to carry out research on two longstanding interests: ecological factors in human development; and cross-cultural theory and methodology.
