Research
My research interests fall within the fields of political psychology and political behavior. Integrating theories and methods from social, cognitive and evolutionary psychology I investigate classic political science topics such as voters’ candidate preferences, discriminatory attitudes and behaviors, attitudes towards redistribution, social welfare and immigration as well as stability and change in public opinion over time.
Teaching activities
Based on dialogue and curiosity my teaching seeks to create a fundamental interest in citizens' political behavior and attitudes among my students. I teach methods oriented courses as well as more substantive courses addressing political attitudes, political behavior and psychology on both the BA- and MA-level. I also supervise students writing their MA theses and PhD students within my fields of expertise.
