Research Areas

• Developmental psychopathology
• Individual differences in early regulatory processes and their influence on subsequent social-emotional, behavioral, and cognitive development
• Parental and environmental factors that may influence or moderate the impact of regulatory processes on adaptive functioning outcomes
• Special emphasis on the role of physiological (i.e., RSA suppression) and neurocognitive processes in the development of psychopathology (emphasis on disruptive behavior disorders) as well as co-morbidity issues
• Interdisciplinary research and examining self-regulatory processes within the pediatric and health domains such as overweight children
• Clinical interventions
• Develop and examine how evidence-based interventions (e.g., behavioral parent training, summer programs, and pharmacological treatments) affect children's regulatory processes and subsequent adaptive functioning across domains
