My areas of research interests include Social and Health Psychology. Specific areas of expertise include Gerontology; Human Rights; The Ageing Workforce; Indigenous Population issues; The Psychology of Terrorism; The Body - Mind relationship.
I have been researching issues related to population ageing since 1999 and have been calling for the incorporation of Indigenous knowledges in academia to enhance knowledge and foster cultural parity. I have developed and successfully tested psychological interventions aimed to promote positive attitudes toward older workers among employers and increase the likelihood of their hiring.
I am a member of the Oxford Round Table and The Australian Association of Gerontology (AAG).
