Dr. Lindberg's research focuses on existential psychology, meaning-making, and the intersection of religious struggles with mental health. He studies how counterfactual thinking and mental simulation influence retrospective meaning construction, and how these processes interact with psychological distress and analytical problem-solving.
His work also extends to forensic psychology, particularly examining the implications of video recording custodial interrogations for policy development and legal practices. He investigates cognitive biases in social judgment, unconscious thought theory, and selective exposure to information.
Dr. Lindberg has contributed extensively to academic discourse through collaborative publications in journals such as The Journal of Positive Psychology, Psychology of Religion and Spirituality, and Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, often exploring the nuanced relationships between existential frameworks, mental health, and behavioral science.
