Research Interests
I have carried out several projects in the general professional/ethical issues, clinical training area. More recently, my students and I have been studying reasons for gender differences in depression as well as the expression of depression and distress in Asian populations. I also have interests in examining cognitive factors in social behaviors broadly defined.
