PhD Stony Brook University
My research teams have studied the ways that people appraise their lives and how changing appraisals affects emotions, physiology, behavior, and performance. Together we have learned (and published findings) that 1) people can shift toward healthier stress outcomes and persuasive messages can help, 2) psychological coping tools can enhance student success, and 3) messaging and implicit bias training can decrease aspects of bias.
Collaborators have included a) physicists and engineers to investigate human stress responses reflected in remote sensing, b) municipal partners to address extreme weather behaviors, c) healthcare and pharmaceutical partners to address cancer screening behaviors via my biobehavioral model of persuasion (BMP), and d) academic leaders using my biobehavioral model of persuasion to promote equity for women in STEM.
