Adjunct Professor Behavioral and Brain Sciences Program Social Psychology Education Ph.D., Duke University, 2008 Research Interests My research is aimed at understanding how people can be successful at self-regulation and self-control. I am particularly interested in how social relationships affect self-control and how self-control affects social relationships. I study the social underpinnings of motivation and self-control across multiple goal domains including academics, health (especially smoking and physical activity), career, and finance.
