Plans & Projects

This page lists a sample of my current and planned research projects. I welcome feedback on any of these.

Current Projects
​
The Civic Significance of Expansive Other-Regarding Virtues
With Megan Haggard (Psychology, Francis Marion), I am engaged in a research project focusing on the civic significance of others-centeredness, the virtues of intellectual dependability, and identification with all humanity. We are developing and validating scales for measuring the virtues of intellectual dependability, and running a series of studies examining the civic significance of all of these expansively other-regarding traits with student and general adult populations. So far this has led to one publication with several others in progress.

Intellectual Transparency
I am writing a series of 3-4 articles about intellectual transparency, funded by the Honesty Project. One article examines the relationship between intellectual transparency and intellectual honesty; another examines whether appealing to the idea of group intellectual transparency provides a distinctive argument for non-summativism about group character; and one examines the value and cultivation of intellectual transparency.

Faith and Flourishing
This is a research monograph project under contract with Oxford University Press. It identifies three routes whereby taking up practices of faith toward God can contribute to the development of virtue and flourishing, particularly for people whose evidence regarding God's existence is ambiguous. 

Faith and Flourishing among Agnostics
Using follow-on funding from my fellowship in Science-Engaged Theology from the University of St Andrews, I am running two studies examining whether practices or postures of faith toward God are related to agnostics' well-being.
