Professional Interests
Research interests include psychological aspects of
health behavior with a focus on the effects of genetic testing for hereditary
disease. Among persons at risk for HuntingtonĘs disease, the goals of research
have been: to identify the factors that distinguish persons who elect testing
from those who do not; to identify the predictors of adjustment to favorable or
unfavorable test outcomes; to quantify the incidence of major depression after a
positive genetic test. Among persons at risk for hereditary colorectal cancer,
research goals have been: to identify the psychological factors distinguishing
test acceptors from test decliners; to identify the predictors of colorectal
cancer screening behavior; and to determine the psychological effects of testing
for hereditary cancer in children. Clinical interests include psychotherapy
with adults, older adolescents, couples, and groups.
