Graduate Students

Jeffry is currently finalizing his doctoral dissertation in Experimental Psychology. He obtained an Honours BSc with specialization in Psychology from the University of Ottawa in 2012. Jeffry is currently interested in examining how parental behaviours relate to the socio-emotional development of preschool children: both intra-culturally (by comparing mothers and fathers in a North American context) and cross-culturally (by comparing mothers in North American and Asian contexts). He is also interested in the interplay between genetics and the caregiving environment on various child outcomes. Jeffry’s research has been funded by a Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Doctoral Scholarship from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and an A*STAR Research Attachment Program Award from the Agency of Science, Technology and Research in Singapore.
