Professor Jacques’ research interests include the development of three aspects of self-control, namely, cognitive control, behavioural control, and emotion regulation. Her work uses multiple methods with typically developing preschool and school-aged children, as well as children at risk. She does both targeted cross-sectional experimental research and large-scale longitudinal intervention-based research.
