Non PhD Associate Member; PhD Student
The main research fields cover themes from Environmental Social Psychology, Social Psychology and Community Psychology, particularly studies on the urban context. She's interested in studying local communities undergoing social and cultural changes and their relation to place, in urban context. She's interested in studying the relationship between representations of the physical and social environment, uses of public spaces and intergroup relations, and the potential impact on public urban policies and citizenship in place. I've been also working in projects related to how communities react to new laws and social threatening situations, and its influence in decision-making processes.
