Jeemin Kim is an assistant professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Michigan State University. His educational background includes sport and exercise psychology.
The overall goal of his research program is to enhance physical activity participation and experiences through socionormative influence. Humans are inherently social and they follow the social norms in their environment, and thus socionormative influence alters the ways in which humans feel, think, and behave.
He has two major research areas. First, he studies how and under what conditions social norms can promote physical activity participation, with a goal to identify ways to normalize (and therefore increase) individualsā physical activity participation. Second, he studies how socionormative influence shapes sport participantsā experiences and behaviors (e.g., athletesā emotion regulation). The goal of this research area is to promote optimal behaviors and experiences of sport participants.
Beyond the two specific areas, he also has broad interests in various types of group and social influences across sport and physical activity settings.
