I work in social psychophysiology within a behavioural biology perspective. I seek to understand the link between behavioural/physiological flexibility, pro(social) interactions, and stress (and more generally psychophysiological activation). I want to try to clarify under what conditions stress promotes or hinders prosocial behaviours, and conversely, under what conditions prosocial behaviours increase or decrease stress. One of the mechanisms I want to explore relies on the following associations:
The underlying idea is that behavioural/physiological flexibility is necessary for prosocial behaviour, but that stress reduces this flexibility. In this context, I want to try to find out what mechanisms are common or distinct between different species.
I also have projects dealing with methodology, epistemology, and data analysis. I try to adopt an open, slow and sustainable scientific approach and to gradually improve my research work in this perspective.
