Research Interests

Dr. Lee’s research focus is primarily on workplace safety, health, and well-being. Specifically, he holds research interests in safety climate assessment and management in high-risk industries, analysis of risk perception styles of temporary workers, work system improvement through the perspectives of macroergonomics and Total Worker Health™, and application of advanced quantitative methodology in multidisciplinary research efforts. Currently, he is a principal investigator projects about the design and implementation of safety climate intervention based on socio-technical systems approach. Also, he is interested in data visualization and application of machine learning approaches to I/O psychology. More information is available at Dr. Lee's laboratory web page.

Student Involvement

Dr. Lee supervises and collaborates with graduate students in the industrial and organizational psychology graduate program. Students attend weekly laboratory meetings to develop research ideas and learn knowledge and skills for occupational safety and health research. In his lab, opportunities to learn about management and analysis of data, grant proposal writing, and publication of the research results will be offered. Ultimately, students will be prepared as independent applied psychology researcher. More information about research opportunities in his lab can be obtained by contacting him (jinlee@ksu.edu).
