• Current research focus: Intelligence and Corruption. I am proposing a new model dubbed Threshold Model of formal-operative Intelligence. The threshold model clearly outperforms the dominant linear approach and I show that intelligence is by far the most important determinant of corruption at the macrolevel (i.e. at the level of national IQs).

My previous research includes physical attractiveness, criteria of mate choice, waist-to-hip ratio and attractiveness of the human figure, male pattern baldness, facial judgment, attractiveness of celebrities, birth order and personality, and personality psychology (personality structure, lexical approach, Big Five).
