The Emotion Lab is thrilled to have Dr. Nuwan as a visiting scholar Spring/Summer 2020! As an associate professor of psychology and director of the Peace and Justice Studies program at Manhattan College, he teaches several undergraduate courses such as Statistics and Research Methods, Cultural Psychology, Peace Psychology and Psychological Testing, and an FSP in Psychological Trauma.

His research focuses on cultural models of posttraumatic stress disorder and major depressive disorder, predictors of psychological well-being in populations affected by war, cross-cultural assessment of psychological constructs, and the construct validity of posttraumatic stress disorder.

At TCNJ, he is collaborating with Dr. Chu Kim-Prieto on a mixed-methods study that aims to identify local systems of meaning in survivors of the Sri Lankan civil war. He will also be co-editing a special issue of Asian-American Journal of Psychology with Dr. Kim-Prieto.
