Welcome to my personal website

I’m David Pineda, a professor in the Department of Health Psychology at the Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), Spain. My teaching, research, and professional work are structured around three main areas:
• Research on dark personality traits and their relationship with antisocial behaviors, especially in educational and forensic contexts.
• Development and validation of psychometric instruments applied to clinical, educational, and legal settings.
• Promotion of socio-emotional well-being and educational innovation, with a strong focus on the initial training of future teachers.

On this website, you’ll find information about my research lines, ongoing projects, publications, teaching activity, and collaborations in the forensic field.

Thank you for visiting.
