Faculty Member, Psychology
Lecturer
About
My primary research interests focus on the health effects of providing and receiving social support and issues relating to informal care for older adults with activity limitations due to cardiovascular disease. In this work I apply theoretical models of job strain and self-regulation to understand how the receipt and provision of informal care influences health and illness. Other specific interests include the psychobiology of emotional distress (depression and anxiety) and cardiovascular disease. I am also more broadly interested in the psychological and social factors that influence health and disease.
