| T. (Thijs) Bouman, PhD | Lecturer and research (Assistant Professor) | Environmental psychology, group processes, human values, social identity. Research interests I am interested in personal and group factors driving individuals’ responses to global crises, in particular climate change. One research line I am currently working on focuses on the influence of personal and (perceived) group values on individuals’ pro-environmental engagement, and how interventions could target such values to promote pro-environmental action. For this, I collaborate with various partners in the field, such as nature organizations (e.g., WWF, Alliance for Nature, Groninger Landschap), zoos (Dutch Association of Zoos) and schools. Currently, I am also exploring the role of values in responses to the COVID-19 crisis. Another research line I am working on focuses on the interaction between individuals and (automated) energy technologies. How do individuals use and interact with energy technologies, what are individuals’ attitudes toward such technologies, and – importantly – how can technologies empower and engage individuals to actively participate in sustainable transitions? |

| G.F. (Gonzalo) Palomo Vélez, PhD | Postdoctoral Researcher | My two primary research interests focus on the study of the evolutionary psychology of sustainable behavior, and on the study of public evaluations of energy from a value-based approach (see the project: Responsible decision-making on gas) | |
| dr. G. (Goda) Perlaviciute | Associate professor Environmental psychology | My key research interests lie in public evaluations and acceptability of energy sources, systems and policies, and which factors influence these evaluations and acceptability judgements. I focus on theory development and applying theory in addressing acute environmental and energy problems. | |
