I study how personality traits interact with geographic and social contexts to shape behaviors, attitudes, and well-being. My work combines quantitative methods, large-scale datasets, and spatial analysis to understand person-environment fit at the population level.
How personality-behavior associations vary across U.S. regions, and what place-level factors explain that variation.
Personality predictors of environmental attitudes and behaviors, and why those relationships differ by location.
Associations between sense of direction, mental rotation, and geographic accessibility indicators.
Trade-offs between internal consistency and validity, scale construction, and measurement reliability.
Context-specific personality associations with political ideology shaped by geographical variation.
Multilevel modeling, latent variable models, geographical analysis, and R programming for psychological research.
