My research focuses on the effects of stressful family environments on children’s cognitive functioning and how this may contribute to the onset and maintenance of mood disorders in high-risk offspring. Cognitive skills such as executive functions provide a foundation from which children can effectively select and utilize appropriate and successful regulation and coping strategies. Such skills provide a promising target for intervening to disrupt the development of maladaptive regulation strategies in children at risk for mood disorders. I hope to better understand how these and other factors affect child adjustment through investigation of fundamental cognitive processes in children at risk for the development of mood disorders.
