Over the years I have
collaborated with students in a broad spectrum of research
topics: pepsi vs. coke taste comparisons; eye contact as a
determinant of personality attributions; personality
correlates of college classroom seating position; factors
involved in self-esteem; acquaintance rape; health behaviors
in college students; the influence of height on power
attributions. Generally, I am open to student interests and
will try to help them translate that interest into a doable
research project.
There
are a variety of additional research opportunities for
students in the Department of Psychology. Those interested in
animal behavior may work with Dr. Kohlert. Those interested in
human conditioning as it relates to learning disabilities may
work with Dr. Coffin. Students interested in clinical and
assessment areas may explore possible topics with Dr. Church.
Drs. O’Brien and Marchese are available to work with students
interested in human resources and industrial psychology. Dr.
O’Brien also has interests in gender issues and personality.
Student
research with me and other faculty members has resulted in
many conference presentations at the regional, state, and
national level, plus many publications in refereed journals.
