Research Interests

My research among early adolescents examines how the interplay between individual and peer characteristics is associated with peer acceptance in general and friendships specifically. I'm also interested in the factors that differentiate peer groups and how these differences influence the interactions within the peer group. In general, I'm interested in the role that culture (or context) plays is shaping group dynamics.
