⛵ Research Journey
Over the past few years, I’ve been navigating my way along the continuum from applied to methodological research. I’m deeply grateful to all the mentors who have guided and supported me throughout this journey.
Ultimately, I aim to bridge applied and methodological research, developing innovative methods and grounding them in practical, real-world studies.
💡 Research Interests
- Dynamic bidirectional relations in discrete-time and continuous-time models (e.g., feedback effects, predator-prey models).
- Time-related issues in intensive longitudinal data (e.g., temporal misalignment, timescale mismatch, optimal time intervals).
- Intensive longitudinal interventions: Dynamic modeling and effect evaluation.
- (Causal) machine learning and large language models in intensive longitudinal studies.
- Reliability estimation and interpretation in intensive longitudinal studies.
- Applications of intensive longitudinal techniques in clinical-health and developmental psychology.
