Dr. Alessandro Geraci
Ph.D student in Health Promotion and Cognitive Sciences
I am currently working on a research project that aims at examining the role of emotional and metaemotional intelligence as teachers’ personal resource for preventing burnout and promoting psychological and physical health and professional self-efficacy. Moreover, it aims at validating a vocational training method for developing emotional and meta-emotional abilities suited for teachers.
My general research interests focus on emotions and emotional intelligence, psychological well-being and health both in school and occupational contexts.
