Research Interests
Doctoral thesis: Influence of parenting practices on school functioning and the orientation of post-secondary studies.
I am interested in parents’ influence on their children’s academic motivation and academic success. Research indicates that parental involvement has a positive influence on learning and academic success. However, parental involvement tends to decrease when children reach high school. In addition, some parents get involved only when their children experience difficulties in school, while others consider that they do not have the capacity to contribute at this stage of their children’s education. My research seeks to analyze the factors that influence parental educational involvement on students’ motivation, academic success and career orientation in the last year of high school.

Research interests
I fundamentally believe that human beings are social creatures and therefore, that we need each other to better move forward in life. As a result, my research interests lead me to question the roles of actors (parents, teachers, specialists, psychologists, etc.) with students and how can they be better equipped to face the realities of our days. And above all, how to concrete their positive influence in the lives of students. I like that research allows us a quest of knowledge in order to transfer it to everyone! In addition, I have a great interest in everything that directly or indirectly affects psychobiological behaviour. Stress concept fascinate me: how can we better understand it, tame it and use it to facilitate our journey?
