Expert Statement
I study individual differences characteristics related to criminal, antisocial, and violent behavior, with special emphasis on affective functioning and personality. With regard to the current public health crisis, I am interested in (1) the effects of social isolation on some forms of interpersonal violence (e.g. intimate partner violence, child abuse, deviant sexual behaviors), and (2) whether a small portion of individuals who tend to habitually disregard social norms and expectations may be contributing to the spread and maintenance of the current public health emergency.
