His research centers on behavioral factors in information technology, including IT self-efficacy, privacy decision-making, problematic and mindful use of digital tools, and individual cybersecurity behaviors. He investigates how users make disclosure choices in fitness tracking apps, how weak password habits develop, and how theoretical constructs in MIS evolve over time. His work combines survey-based methods with machine learning approaches to model human behavior in security contexts.
The recent publications of Dr. Correia reflect a strong trajectory in top-tier information systems journals such as MIS Quarterly, ACM Transactions on MIS, and The DATA BASE for Advances in Information Systems. His article pipeline demonstrates expertise in construct development, behavioral modeling, and hybrid methodologies merging traditional survey research with machine learning. The thematic focus spans privacy, security compliance, and the evolution of psychological constructs in digital environments.
Dr. Correia has not yet had scientific awards publicly listed in the provided text.
He advises and teaches in the Management Information Systems program, offering courses such as BMIS 235 – Management Information Systems and BMIS 331 – Problem Solving and Programming Techniques. While no formal advisees are listed, his research involves collaboration with established scholars in cybersecurity and behavioral IS research. There is no mention of external grants or funded projects in the provided material.
Though not explicitly described, his research likely contributes to academic and applied efforts in organizational cybersecurity training, privacy-by-design frameworks, and digital wellness initiatives. His forthcoming work on updating theoretical constructs suggests a forward-looking role in shaping methodological rigor within the MIS discipline.
