As a university teacher of psychology and psychogerontology, I am involved in the teaching, planning and development of these subjects. I teach psychological research methods in the basic studies of psychology and the psychology of ageing, i.e. geropsychology, as well as work and organisational psychology in the subject studies. I am responsible of the recognition of prior learning in psychology. In gerontology, I teach psychogerontology in both basic and subject studies. Psychology of ageing was also the subject of my doctoral research that focused on subjective age identification.
