Research interests
Associate Professor Schutte's research focuses on positive psychology constructs such as emotional intelligence, self-efficacy and positive affect. With regard to emotional intelligence, she is interested in exploring the ways in which high emotional intelligence may lead to positive outcomes and approaches to increasing emotional intelligence. The study of self-efficacy provides a promising avenue for facilitating beneficial outcomes in a variety of behavioural realms. Positive affect is linked to many desirable life outcomes and she is interested in exploring approaches to effectively increasing sustainable positive affect.
