Research Interests:

Child maltreatment and the life course, particularly the role of antisocial behavior in its developmental sequelae. Prevention science/program evaluation, behavioral genetics, and child and family policy, as they relate to family violence and victimization. I have a tangential research interest in maltreatment perpetrated by caregivers upon dependent elders.
