Biography
Dr. Weixi Kang holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychological Science from the University of Arizona. He pursued his postgraduate studies at Imperial College London, where he earned his PhD in 2023. Dr. Kang’s research focuses on understanding the biopsychosocial factors that are related to well-being across diverse settings, including clinical, occupational, and educational contexts. To achieve this, he combines self-collected data with secondary analyses of large-scale longitudinal studies, such as the UK Household Longitudinal Study. Drawing on these insights, he is also interested in the design and implementation of interventions aimed at fostering psychological, mental, and cognitive well-being at both the individual and population level.
His scholarly contributions include over 50 publications as the first or corresponding author in prestigious SCI/SSCI-indexed peer-reviewed journals, such as the Journal of Affective Disorders, Comprehensive Psychiatry, Journal of Psychosomatic Research, Personality and Individual Differences, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, Neuropsychologia, Acta Psychologica, Current Psychology, Frontiers in Psychology, Frontiers in Psychiatry, Frontiers in Public Health, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, Scientific Reports, Journal of Clinical Medicine, Healthcare, Behavioral Sciences, Sustainability, Disease, and Reports.
Dr. Kang's work has garnered significant attention from leading media outlets, including the Daily Mail (the UK’s highest-circulating newspaper), La Vanguardia (Catalonia's foremost newspaper), Inc. (a respected American business magazine renowned for its annual Inc. 5000 list), Psychology Today (a popular media focusing on psychology and human behavior), and the New York Post (the fourth-largest newspaper by print circulation among all US newspapers).
In addition to his research, Dr. Kang serves on the editorial boards of Humanities and Social Sciences, BMC Psychology, and PLOS ONE. He has also contributed as a peer reviewer over 200 times for more than 50 reputable international journals.
