His research focuses on creativity and innovation, addressing two questions: (a) what makes people be creative/innovative? and (b) what makes people evaluate something or someone as creative/innovative? To address these questions, he utilizes a variety of methodological approaches such as social network analysis, meta-analytic techniques, and person-centered analyses.
