Since the research in Practical Theology needs to know reality, to be able to reflect on it, it is dedicated also to reflect on the applicability of empirical research methods in the scope of theological reflection.

Another of the areas in which he focuses his research is in the didactics of teaching religion, focusing on digital resources for teaching and learning, especially informal.
The third preferential area unites, in a way, the previous two, which is the reflection on the formation of pastoral agents. In this area, in addition to reflective production, has also carried out some practical work.
