Much of our ongoing research is about attachment, which is studied in several different projects:

  • in relation to religion / spirituality,
  • in relation family law-related considerations,
  • in relation to development in children whose caregivers have an intellectual disability
  • in relation to cultural and gene-culture co-evolutionary considerations
  • in relation to psychedelics and psychedelically assisted psychotherapy
  • in relation to the neurohormone oxytocin
