Research Interests:
I have a broad interest in the social psychology of
close relationships and emotion. More specifically, my research focuses on
perceptions of one's partner, attachment theory, and partner support for
self-expansion. My current research seeks to understand how relationship
partners can help one another adjust to life transitions. I am currently
conducting a study, funded by the National Institute on Aging, examining
the immediate and long-term health outcomes of partner support for
personal growth during the transition to retirement.
