My main lines of research are in the field of social and environmental psychology, developing a critical look at the processes of reproduction and change of class and gender inequalities in Chilean society. To this end, I have studied the life histories of young people and their processes of social and/or spatial mobility, especially when they have lived in contexts of urban segregation and social exclusion. To address these issues, I have been particularly interested in interdisciplinary approaches and innovative methodologies for the study of psychosocial issues with applied potential, which can be translated into psychosocial interventions and/or public policies.
