Associate Professor Profile

Associate Professor

I work within the framework of the theory of Ecological Psychology and I am interested in both sports and non-sports contexts. Myresearch has mainly focused on interception tasks, by individuals and teams of individuals, trying to unravel the information that underlies successful (joint) action. I have a broad international network and have served several journals and review boards. More information about myresearch can be found.
