Research Interests

I have interests in evaluation of implementation, caregiver influence on youth social behavior and conduct problems, and outcomes measurement. Secondary interests include school psychologists' preparedness to work with diverse groups, and math interventions.

Recent projects include (a) analyses to examine parenting factors and behavioral screening to predict and prevent school delinquency and suspensions; (b) a comprehensive school psychology diversity course review, and the development of a broad training assessment for trainees; and (c) a peer-based mathematics intervention for first year biology majors (NSF Grant #1719262).
