Kort cv
Ik ben universitair docent bij de sectie Methoden & Statistiek van het Instituut Psychologie. Ik ben gepromoveerd aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam (2017), waar ik onderzoek deed naar verandering in gezondheid gerelateerde kwaliteit van leven. Dergelijke metingen worden gebruikt om inzicht te krijgen in de gevolgen van de ziekte en behandeling voor het leven van patiënten, vanuit het perspectief van de patiënt. Ik gebruikte ‘structural equation modeling’ technieken om veranderingen in de betekenis van de zelfrapportage – ook wel ‘response shift’ genoemd – te detecteren. Gedurende mijn promotie was ik als onderzoeker betrokken bij de afdeling Medische Psychologie van het Academisch Medisch Centrum. Na het afronden van mijn promotieonderzoek (2016) ben ik werkzaam als universitair docent aan de Universiteit Leiden.
Onderzoek
Mijn onderzoek richt zich op het ontwikkelen en toepassen van geavanceerde statistische technieken voor de evaluatie en interpretatie van longitudinale gegevens, van eenvoudige pre-posttest onderzoekdesigns tot meer complexe intensieve longitudinale onderzoekdesigns (bijv. dagboekonderzoek). Mijn interesses liggen specifiek bij structural equation modeling technieken (o.a. factoranalyse) en meetinvariantie onderzoek, maar omvatten ook meer algemene psychometrische vraagstukken (o.a. operationalisatie en interpretatie van verschillende soorten verandering).
