Research interests

One of my research interests is the development of social cognition in young children. My master’s thesis focused on theory of mind and visual perspective-taking and the relative difficulty of tasks used to measure these constructs during the pre-school years.

In another line of research, I am interested in somatic symptom disorders and emotion regulation. I want to investigate how adolescents who experience clinical somatization differ from other clinical populations, such as adolescents with primary mood and anxiety disorders.
