Selected publications

Research and writing on emotional intelligence, child development and human-centred education — the thread that runs across human development, training and innovation.

As an author

Sonia Cantatore writes at the meeting point of psychology, education and human development. Her work turns research into accessible language — bridging theory and practice for professionals, families and young readers alike.

Her publications range from academic study on emotional intelligence in child development to children's literature that turns developmental themes — resilience, diversity, courage, inner strength — into stories young readers can inhabit.

Research and writing form part of her consulting and training activity. Psychological professional activities are carried out exclusively in Italy, under the applicable Italian professional regulations.
