Research Interests
Currently I am interested in interpersonal relationships, including the mechanisms which are involved in the success or failure of a relationship and the overall experience of the persons involved in that relationship. Specifically, I am interested in the role that psychological aggression has on relationship satisfaction. I am also interested in divorce and the role it plays on the psychological functioning of the partners and any children involved.
