Professor Peter Strelan works at the intersection of social psychology and individual differences. His broad research interest is in the area of forgiveness and revenge, and how justice beliefs influence how people respond to transgressions. He also has expertise in the flipped classroom, and interest in the development of innovative teaching activities.

I conduct research that is located at the intersection of social psychology and individual differences. Broadly speaking, I am interested in how people get along, particularly when conflict and transgressions occur.  Both justice and social harmony are fundamentally important to humans; how do we get both following a transgression? Thus, most of my research is concerned with forgiveness and revenge, and also how justice beliefs influence how we respond to transgressions. 

I have a second string to my research bow, insofar as I have expertise in the flipped classroom and interest in the development of innovative teaching exercises.
