I study aggression and have a special interest in bullying and victimization among children as well as inclusionary practices in general and special education. Prior to my academic career, I was an elementary school teacher for children with special educational needs, specializing in behavioral issues and so my work in the classroom informs all of my work and I remain very involved with national inclusionary policy as well as classroom management and applied behavior analysis (ABA) in school settings. My BA is from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and my MA and PhD are from the University of California, Berkeley and San Francisco State University (Joint-Doc in Special Education).
Over the last several years, I have worked primarily in areas associated with evolutionary psychology and potential positive or negative individual and group outcomes from bullying and I have a special interest in the psychology of evil as well as social dominance and their relations to bullying, victimization, and bystanding.
Are you interested in the Seymour Fox School of Education at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem? or, perhaps, our small special education group?
