I am an interdisciplinary social and behavioral scientist working at the intersection of psychology, pedagogy, and sociology, focusing on family dynamics.
Personal flourishing requires a balance between autonomy and relatedness, a balance that must be cultivated in all relationships. My current research explores how this balance can be achieved in family relationships during the transition to adulthood, both for individuals with and without a migration background. Additionally, I examine how socio-cultural factors related to migration influence this process.
To challenge and empirically test existing assumptions, I leverage my expertise in both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. I use tools such as surveys, and statistical techniques (e.g., multilevel analyses, structural equation modeling) alongside software like SPSS, R, and Mplus. I also apply qualitative methods, including interviews, using analysis software such as Atlas.ti.
