Research interests
My research focuses on the associations between external influences and environments, such as screen-time, media, schooling type, and recreational involvement, on child development. Currently, my research at the University of Victoria is on the development of creativity in school aged children.
My previous work at St. Mary’s University largely focused on the relationship between screen time and child development. Specifically, I looked at preschool aged populations and the associations between screen time and behavioural, emotional, and social strengths and difficulties.
