My research can be categorized into two broad categories: (1) judgment and decision making, and (2) emotion, affect and mood. The majority of my work investigates the intersection of the two domains. While I am primarily interested in understanding the emotional causes and consequences of judgment and choice, a substantial amount of my research outside of that area examines the underlying mental processes that influence morally-motivated judgment and choice. I am also actively involved in the investigation of the structure of affect, and in particular the precipitating factors and consequences of humor and mixed feelings. A central feature of my work on emotions involves developing new measures of emotional experiences.
