INTRODUCTION

My research interests include researching the influence of family context, parenting practices on children's development. Recently, I have focused on the association of positive psychology and parenting practices, parental burnout, and children's outcomes. In addition, I am also interested in positive education, grounded on my hands-on early childhood education [ECE] teaching and counseling experience and observation toward ECE pedagogy philosophy. I aim to research and apply positive psychology into ECE to help teachers and students found they authentic happiness and satisfaction with their job.

I uploaded all my research output on ResearchGate. You can also follow me on ResearchGate to have timely information regarding my research!
