Research Interests

The key focus of my research is on teachers' and students' emotional experiences. I consider emotions to be relevant because they are an integral component of subjective well-being. Emotions also impact the quality of teaching, learning and achievement and consequently, play a central role in achievement oriented societies.

I am interested in research questions such as:

  • What is the role of emotions during tests of (e.g. visual) working memory in the lab?
  • How do teacher-student relationships affect classroom functioning and teacher well-being?
  • Can emotions be contagious between teachers and their students?
  • How can teacher and student emotions be measured?
  • What are the causes and effects of teachers' emotions?
  • Can enthusiastic teachers increase students' joy and interest in learning? 
I continually learn and teach using Datacamp.

Open Science and my Commitment to Research Transparency

I embrace the values of openness and transparency in science. I believe that such research practices increase the informational value and impact of our research, as the data can be reanalyzed and synthesized in future studies. Furthermore, they increase the credibility of the results, as an independent verification and replication is possible.

For this reason, I signed the Commitment to Research Transparency.
