Anne Congard serves as Professor of Differential Health Psychology and Deputy Director of the Psychology Laboratory of the Pays de la Loire (LPPL - UR 4638) at the University of Nantes' Faculty of Psychology. She oversees PASS and LAS training for psychology students and maintains an active research program within the LPPL laboratory (office 150, Chemin de la Censive du Tertre).
Her research investigates emotional regulation through dynamic approaches to emotional fluctuations, examining strategies across time and life events. She studies conative sphere changes (personality, depression, anxiety) via mindfulness, positive psychology, CBT, and sports interventions, defining operationalization criteria for health, work, and daily life contexts. Her methodological expertise includes multivariate structural methods, principal component analysis, and advanced structural modeling techniques like causal pathway analysis and multi-level models.
Recent publications (2020-2024) reveal strong thematic continuity in emotional dynamics research, with emerging focus areas including eco-anxiety assessment, breast cancer psychosocial impacts, and pandemic-related emotional regulation. These works predominantly employ longitudinal designs and sophisticated statistical modeling to capture individual differences in emotional processes across diverse populations.

She operates within the Psychology Laboratory of the Pays de la Loire (LPPL), a recognized research unit (UR 4638) conducting multidisciplinary psychological research across health, differential, and cognitive domains with strong methodological rigor in longitudinal and dynamic assessment approaches.
