Emotion dysregulation in children
ADHD and comorbid internalizing/externalizing disorders of childhood
Intervention development
My research focuses primarily on emotion regulation and dysregulation among children with and without ADHD. Specific areas of research include 1) Assessment of patterns of emotion regulation and dysregulation among children with ADHD, children with Bipolar Disorder, and typically functioning children; 2) Development of interventions for the treatment of emotion dysregulation among children with ADHD, and 3) Use of portable data assessment technology (i.e., personal data assistants, smartphones) in the assessment of mood and behavior.
