Certified Senior Teacher of Special Needs Children

My research focuses on decision making and ADHD. It seeks to better comprehend the association between excessive engagement in risky behavior and adults-ADHD.  I apply decision theories on the psychopathological at-risk population with regard to clinical, ecological and methodological aspects. Ongoing studies include (a) Developing more adequate assessments tools. (b) Locating mediators and moderates and advance them to interventions programs. (c) Exploring a mechanism that can explain ADHD individuals’ preferences and poor decision making.
