Occupational health psychology including employee health and well-being, stressor-strain relations, work-family interface, supportive relations, help seeking behaviors, substance abuse in the workplace.
Factorial experimental designs including full and reduced factorial designs and their application in the context of clustered (nested) data.
Adaptive treatment strategies and their application in behavioral interventions and decision making processes.

| Current Projects and Collaborators: |
|
I work with Linda Collins and John Dziak of The Methodology Center on the application of full and fractional factorial designs in the context of clustered (nested) data. I am primarily interested in applying these methods for the development of potent behavioral interventions.
I also work with Susan Murphy of The Methodology Center on introducing the concept of adaptive treatment strategies to behavioral scientists, as well as on the application of statistical methods and experimental designs for the formulation of dynamic treatment strategies.
I am also involved in work with Ayala Cohen and Etti Doveh of the Statistics Lab at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology on the application of generalized linear multi-level models for predicting changes in drinking behaviors over time.
