Outline of work: Children, adolescents, morality, fairness, prosociality, emotions and emotion regulation, group decisions, risky decisions, friendship, cross-cultural psychology Interests: Broadly speaking, I am interested in the development of decision-making, which I approach from an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural, and applied perspective. My research examines the social, cognitive, and emotional factors underlying decision-making in different domains (e.g., moral decisions, risky decisions) and cultures in children, adolescents, and adults and in individuals and groups. I also investigate how members from special populations (e.g., offenders, people with disabilities) make decisions and how we can support people making good decisions in online environments or concerning their health. I am happy to consider supervising PhD and MSc research degrees in any of the above or related areas. Please email me at michaela dot gummerum at warwick dot ac dot uk for more information.
