Research InterestsBroadly speaking, my research interests center around communication experiences in close relationships and higher education contexts. Specifically, my substantive areas of interest include attachment, jealousy expression, motivation, race-focused and race-reimaged constructs, self-determination theory, and well-being.
To study these topics, I use various latent variable modeling techniques such as factor analysis, longitudinal structural equation modeling, and mixture modeling aimed toward producing substantive-methodological synergies, which incorporate the latest advancements in statistical modeling to more creatively and thoroughly explore substantive issues. |
