- Associate Professor, Psychology, Southern Cross University
My primary interest is in pleasure and pleasurable emotions, especially their relationship with human health, resilience, creativity and flourishing. I am the lead researcher on the National Pleasure Audit (Australia).
The other main area of my research is gender - specifically in gender roles. I am a collaborator on the Toward Gender Harmony Project; we surveyed thousands of people across 62 countries on attitudes around gender and are publishing aspects of that work across a number of journals.
