Biography
My research training is in pediatric exercise physiology and behavioral medicine. My current research primarily focuses on factors that affect individuals鈥 motivation to participate in physical activity and sedentary behavior. This includes examining the effects of technology (e.g., cell phone use, activity monitors, video gaming), autonomy, peer influence and adiposity on the decision to participate in physical or sedentary activities. I also have an interest in biostatistics and research design.
