My research focuses on emotions and motivations, their implications for social and cognitive processes, and their underlying neural circuits. This interest leads to the investigation of topics such as anger and aggression; the effects of emotions on attention and cognition; attitude formation, maintenance, and change; and the antecedents and consequences of discrepancies between cognitions. My lab used multiple methods to investigate these issues, including behavioral, self-report, and social affective neuroscience.
My research has been supported by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Science Foundation, and the Fetzer Institute. In 2002, I was fortunate to receive the Award for Distinguished Early Career Contribution to Psychophysiology from the Society for Psychophysiological Research. In 2012, I was fortunate to receive the Career Trajectory Award from the Society of Experimental Social Psychology. I have served as an associate editor of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology and I am currently an associate editor of the journals Psychological Science and Emotion.
