Interests: I am interested in personality and cross-cultural psychology and I have conducted research on cultural and individual variation in personality development, emotional experience, individualistic-collectivistic attitudes, and subjective well-being. My current research also tackles complex relationships among personality, health, and subjective well-being as well as the genetics of personality traits
