Some Current Research Project Themes

• Moderators of affective and cognitive responses to physical activity (e.g., modifying the environmental context or exercise prescription to elicit variable responses).

• Ecologically-valid physical activity interventions and their impact on mental health

• Diathesis-stress conceptualizations of internalizing psychopathology (e.g., examining acute and chronic stress exposure on cognitive-affective processes in adolescents and adults).
