André Luiz Monezi Andrade

As a seasoned psychologist with a focus on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, I hold a tenured position within the Graduate Programs in Psychology and LIMIAR (Languages, Media, and Art) at PUC-Campinas. My academic journey includes postdoctoral studies completed at both PUC-Campinas and UNIFESP in 2017 and 2018, respectively. My professional endeavors predominantly revolve around the essential processes of psychological assessment, prevention, and intervention. I am especially attuned to impulse disorders, spanning issues from problematic drug to digital media use. One of my core interests is the development of innovative psychometric measures for the accurate assessment of these constructs. Within the sphere of scientific cooperation, I have had the opportunity to collaborate on projects with a diverse range of researchers from universities across the globe. My international collaborations include a pivotal role within the Substance Abuse Department of the World Health Organization's (WHO) eHealth Project on Alcohol and Health Investigators Group, partnering with esteemed researchers from Switzerland, India, Mexico, and Belarus. Furthermore, I am an active participant in the Drugs and Society Working Group of ANPEPP (GT 17) and a proud founding member of REEDUCA-AD (Brazilian Network for Science and Education on Alcohol and Drugs). More information about our work can be found at www.reeduca-ad.org. In the world of academic publishing, I contribute as an Associate Editor for the esteemed "Estudos de Psicologia" (Campinas) journal. I also serve as a Handling Editor for a selection of highly-regarded journals, including the "International Journal of High-Risk Behaviors and Addiction", "Frontiers in Psychology", "Frontiers in Public Health", and "Frontiers in Education". On a personal note, I am the devoted father of two boys and had the privilege of taking parental leave (through adoption) from July to November 2021, a period I fondly cherish.
