Research Interests

I am interested in the measurement and structure of attitude, particularly attitude relevant to socially significant objects/groups (religion, political parties, ethnic groups, etc.). My PhD. research is in the field of political attitude, specifically it looks at differences in the structure of political attitude across groups of political activists.

Teaching

My primary area of teaching interest is in Social Psychology. I am involved in the development of web based resources for use with distance, cross campus and flexible delivery of on campus teaching. I have supervised honours and applied fourth year research in the areas of political and socially relevant attitude.
