My Research

My research interests are broadly at the interface of statistics and industrial / organisational psychology with particular interest in skill acquisition, performance, individual differences, psychometrics, and selection and recruitment. I am currently working on several projects including (1) testing models (particularly Bayesian models) of faking personality tests, (2) developing an integrated quantitative model of the relationship between individual differences, practice, strategy, and performance, (3) applying methods of structural equation modelling meta-analysis to studies of goals, strategies, and performance, and (4) developing and testing quantitative models of the correlates of well-being and personality.
