Currently, she is conducting (mainly experimental) research on the effectiveness of persuasive messages in a commercial and non-profit context, with a focus on 1) how children and adults cope with digital advertising, 2) dark side consumption choices, and 3) how the new media environment affects advertising processing.

She also recently launched the website 'Mag dit online?' to inform influencer parents about the risks involved with sharing images of their children on social media.
