Recent research:
The body of work presents a unified focus on psychology, mental health, social well-being, and violence prevention, integrating clinical practice with methodological rigor. Across diverse studies, the author emphasizes the preparation and interpretation of clinical reports, the validation of measurement tools for family functioning and suicide risk, and the broader landscape of psychology research. Several pieces highlight the practical applications of psychometric validation (e.g., APGAR in Ecuadorian older adults) and the importance of culturally relevant instruments for adolescent suicide risk assessment.
