Artificial Intelligence and Mental Health

This study explores how college students feel and think about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help with mental health. We want to see if students studying science and technology (STEM) feel differently about AI than students in other areas. We're studying this because AI is being used more and more to solve both work and personal problems. However, using AI in mental health is still new and has not been talked about much.

Impact of a victim and denouncer's status on support for Political Violence

This study examines how willing people are to punish a person for committing an act of political violence based on whether the victim is a politician or civilian, and how a denouncer's status as a politician or civilian impacts people's willingness to punish political violence. Our experiment also aims to measure whether these variables impact participants' desire to run for office. The results of this study have several implications in the field. First, understanding how to change people's reactions to political violence may allow us to develop effective methods to decrease support for political violence. In addition, our results may provide insight into why people desire to run for office.

Investigating the Experience of NC Foster Parents Seeking Resources in Rural Areas

I am researching how foster parents seek information about mental health resources in North Carolina. Recently, a state-wide needs assessment showed that foster parents struggle to find mental health resources for the foster children in their care. This adds to the issues of not feeling supported, which is one of the main reasons foster parents quit. The goal of this research is to help foster parents feel supported and improve retention.

Preoperative Frailty Feasibility Study

This study is designed to determine if measurements of strength, body composition, muscle size, independence, and nutrition can be completed at a patient's pre-anesthesia testing appointment. These measurements will be used to determine a patient's baseline frailty and to ideally give predictions for the risk of postoperative complications. The measurements are all non-invasive and involve the use of a spirometer, hand grip strength tool, bioimipedance tool, ultrasound, and written questionnaire. The study will help guide future pre-anesthesia testing appointment components related to frailty.
