About me

Research:

Trang's academic work and experience centres around social and developmental psychology, as well as individual differences factors in well-being and socio-cultural adaptation, specially on how they can be studied within multicultural social contexts.

As a mixed methodologist, Trang has worked with quantitative and qualitative research methods in psychology and education, including mixed effects modelling, thematic analysis, and narrative analysis.
