About me
I received my B.A. in psychology from the University of Zagreb
(Croatia) and a Ph.D. from the University of New Hampshire.
Currently, I am a postdoctoral associate at the IPC lab at Tufts
University.
I am interested in how people view their successes and failures. To
address this question, I have investigated autobiographical memories
of times when people felt especially good or especially bad about
themselves from childhood to middle age and across cultures. Also, I
am interested in consequences of people’s definitions of success and
failure. For example, I examined how types of success and failure
situations relate to social and academic functioning in early
adolescents. My current research investigates how men and women make
decisions about their successes and failures in gender stereotyped
areas. Other interests include emotion expression and regulation,
and development of creative achievement.
