My substantive research involves exploring the relationship between "dark side" personality characteristics (e.g., psychopathy, aggression, narcissism) and the manifestation of antisocial behavior (e.g., aggressive reactions to job dissatisfaction, sexual harassment).

I am currently in the process of developing and validating an indirect measure of sub-clinical psychopathy that assesses these traits by examining differences in how individuals implicitly frame and reason about social environments and social interactions.
