This is the online site of my research concerning Social Psychology. My research interests focus on both experimental and theoretical aspects of the field, with a stress on social cognition (my "expertise" (;~) as a method for exploring social psychological phenomena.
Nonetheless, my (non-research) interests in Social Psychology are varied. Some interesting articles I've come across are available below:

discussion of these issues are always welcome. The first discussion targets are in regard to statistics:
NHST: Can Psychology do better?
Report of the APA Task Force on Statistical Inference.
