Dr. Bibace focuses on partnerships in clinical, educational, and research contexts. These partnerships require symmetrical relationships between professionals and patients, students, and research participants. Lifespan health psychology is one research area of application. In addition, Dr. Bibace applies this partnership perspective to: getting a person's "own story" about their lives; gerontology, including the driving dilemma for older persons; slow-food movement internationally; internet access as a basic right for all citizens of Estonia; cross-cultural value orientations; inventing human rights; and a person's concept of illness through the life cycle of their family in this and other countries.
