Geskes, Kelli Kristina | Circumplex Based Interpersonal Processes Contribute to Link Between Self-Regulation and Social Outcomes | A variety of individual differences in aspects of self-regulation (e.g., grit, self-control, conscientiousness) predict important life outcomes, such as wellbeing, vocational success, and physical health. Most conceptual models of these associations emphasize intrapersonal processes (e.g., inhibitio... | 2020 | |

Wylie, Kathryn Niven | Differences Between Mother and Peer Listeners in the Encouragement Of Perspective-Taking | Existing literature implicates perspective-taking, the cognitive and affective process by which an individual comes to understand the viewpoint of another, in a broad variety of desirable outcomes. Although scaffolding is an oft-researched topic, there is little extant work on how scaffolding may en... | 2020 | |

Lavelle, Mark E. | Eeg time-Frequency Dynamics Associated with eye Blink Suppession | The majority of individuals with Tourette's Syndrome (TS) experience fluctuating, involuntary sensations which build in intensity until tics are performed.

Stephens, Mason | Effect of prolonged nature exposure on mindfulness and P300 Amplitude | This study utilized a quasi-experimental, within-subjects design to explore the effects of a 5-day nature immersion on perceived mindfulness, behavioral performance, and brain wave activity using Electroencephalography (EEG) to assess the amplitude of the P3a and P3b Event-Related Brain Potentials. ... | 2020 | |

Dean, Emma | The Effects of maternal resilience on newborn neurobehavioral outcomes | There is growing evidence that exposure to prenatal maternal stress may adversely affect fetal neurodevelopment by altering the fetal environment. In this study, we investigated whether maternal resilience can act as a moderator of the negative effects of maternal stress on newborn neurobehavioral o... | 2020 | |

Grandy, Hailey | Examining the associations between maternal intrusiveness and detachment and cognitive and language skills in 18-month-old children | Sensitive parenting refers to the degree to which a parent responds to a child's needs punctually and appropriately. In contrast, insensitive parenting occurs when a parent is less attuned to their child's needs and often comes in two distinct forms: detachment and intrusiveness. Detachment occurs w... | 2023 | |

Stitt, John | Examining the associations between maternal sensitivity and infant responses to the still face paradigm | The Still Face Paradigm is used to assess infants' responses to the absence of normal social interaction with the parent. Infants' responses to this moderately stressful task - both physiologically and behaviorally - can help us understand how emotion regulation develops during infancy. The current ... | 2021 | |

Salmi, Luciana P. | Examining the Combined Effects of Social Support and Maternal Prenatal Mood on Newborn Neurobehavior | A large body of research shows that exposure to maternal prenatal anxiety may be linked to adverse birth outcomes and impaired psychophysiological functioning in infancy (Barker, Jaffee, Uher, & Maughan, 2011). The majority of research has been focused on birth outcomes leaving a gap in the literatu... | 2018 | |

Melby, Lindsey Rose | Examining the effects of alcohol use and post-traumatic stress disorder on deployment-related traumatic brain injuries through measurements of subcortical volume changes | Currently, our accuracy in predicting the lasting effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is low, due to large sample heterogeneity. Possible negative lasting effects of TBI include mental health disorders and substance use disorders (SUDs). Links between TBI, alcohol use, and Post-Traumatic Stress ... | 2024 | |

Erickson, Mariah | False hearing and the N400: the effects of linguistic context on language perception | False hearing is a phenomenon where one mishears what has been said to them based on linguistic contextual cues used to make a prediction (Rogers et al., 2012). The incorrect hearing usually has similar phonemic properties to other likely words and syntactic relation to what was said prior. Our stud... | 2021 | |

Neff, Dylan | Fetal Programming of the Infant Sympathetic Nervous System | Maternal mood during the prenatal period may affect a broad range of infant outcomes. This study examined the impact of mothers' trait anxiety and emotion dysregulation on their 7-month old infants' sympathetic nervous system as measured by electrodermal activity (EDA) during the still-face paradigm... | 2020 | |

Woolston, Caleb M. | Impact of trauma exposure and posttraumatic stress symptoms on baseline self-reported safety behaviors versus observer-rated safety behaviors during the trauma film paradigm | Background: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a high burden disorder marked by safety behaviors (SB), which are covert or overt actions used to escape distressing feelings or places. However, literature suggests scores on observer-rated and self-reported SBs can be discrepant, creating a need... | 2022 | |

Ribble, Leah | The implications of childhood maltreatment and current life stress for pregnant women's hair cortisol concentrations | The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is one of the core components of the body's stress system. As such, the HPA axis is responsive to many different stressors, including those in childhood-such as childhood maltreatment-as well as sources of current life stress. The product of the HPA axis... | 2023 | |
