Research Interests

Keywords: externalizing psychopathology; personality-psychopathology relationships; gene-environment interplay; classification of psychopathology

My research focuses on the development, hierarchical structure, and etiology of externalizing disorders (e.g., ADHD, alcohol use and misuse, conduct problems) and related traits (e.g, personality, aggression), particularly those that arise in childhood and adolescence. I am especially interested in exploring shared phenotypic and etiological variance among and between externalizing disorders and traits as well as the developmental, genetic, and environmental mechanisms by which these relationships arise.
