His research interests focus on social motivation and emotion, and on processes involving self-reflection and self-relevant thought.

He was the 2010 recipient of the Lifetime Career Award from the International Society for Self and Identity and a 2015 co-recipient of the Scientific Impact Award from the Society for Experimental Social Psychology.
In this episode, we discuss things related to our notion of “self”, how we construct it, and how we move in our social environments, deal with other people, and react to social exclusion. We deal with sociometer theory, and mental mechanisms like self-presentation, self-compassion, self-reflection, and their relationship with academic success and other life outcomes.
