Dwight Tse is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) at the School of Psychological Sciences and Health, University of Strathclyde. In 2019, Dwight completed his Ph.D. in Positive Developmental Psychology at Claremont Graduate University, supervised by Profs. Jeanne Nakamura and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. He also worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Chinese University of Hong Kong with Prof. Helene Fung from 2019 to 2020. Dwight’s research interests include topics ranging from positive psychology and well-being science to aging and lifespan developmental psychology. Broadly defined, his work investigates the dispositional (e.g., autotelic personality) and situational factors that facilitate flow experiences, meaningfulness, and overall well-being across the lifespan, using diverse methods such as experience sampling or daily diary studies, secondary data analyses, and in-lab experiments. His recent work also examines prosociality, age-related attitudes, solitude, and ideal affect (affective states that people want to achieve).
