Clinical Psychology
BIO
My research is geared toward better understanding the academic, behavioral, social, and executive functioning of children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) from a developmental psychopathology perspective. Of note, most of my research is designed with the end goal of applying what is learned toward developing better evidence-based and preventive interventions for children with ADHD. My current research program involves studies in several areas:
- use of aerobic physical activity to improve cognitive, social, and behavioral functioning in ADHD-risk and typically developing children (current focus on early childhood).
- evidence-based treatment of ADHD in children.
- peer relationship problems of children with ADHD and typically developing children.
- executive function in children with ADHD and typically developing children.
- transdiagnostic considerations in the assessment of ADHD in early childhood
