Professional experience

Since January 2021, Theresa de Paula Sieverding pursues her doctoral degree studying "Intergenerational solidarity in environmental crises" with a PhD-scholarship granted by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU). She also works as a research assistant in the department.

From June to December 2020, Theresa was working as a research assistant in the Department of Environmental Psychology. As part of the research projects "AuRa" and "Die Corona-Krise als 'Gamechanger' für die Transformation zur Nachhaltigkeit?", she studies sustainable intentions and behaviors, and the nexus corona-sustainability.

She obtained her master's degree in Psychology at the Otto-von-Guericke-Universität, Magdeburg, with a specialization in environmental psychology/ human-technology interaction. From 2017 to 2019, she worked as a student assistant in the Department of Environmental Psychology. In her master's thesis, she studied the influence of value orientations, the perceived intention of prior generations, and generational identity on sustainable intentions of young Hawai'ians.

She obtained her bachelor's degree in Psychology at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, as well as the certificate Studium Oecologicum. In her bachelor's thesis, she investigated the role of statistics experience, numeracy and graph literacy for the detection of covariance and causality in time series.
