Research Interests

I study home and school factors that support positive outcomes for youth. I am particularly interested in studying family-school and teacher-student relationship in children starting in kindergarten, as well as how these relationships change as children progress through school. I also study parenting attitudes and behaviors that support the development of academic enabling classroom behaviors (e.g., engagement, prosocial skills) in children. I take an ecological approach in examining these relationships and I am interested in how caregiver and child behaviors reciprocally influence each other over time.

I am also interested in the development of interventions to universally support students’ academic enabling classroom behaviors. For example, how can we best support students’ social skills and motivation in the classroom?
