Expertise

My research interests mainly concern self-other differences.

Do we know how others react in certain situations?

Do we know about our partner's preferences?

How is deciding for the self different from deciding for someone else?

But also interpersonal processes in general interest me.

What makes romantic relationships work?

How do others influence our decisions?
