overview

• My area of research includes team dynamics, interpersonal relationships, and efficacy theories, with a specialization in sport and military settings. This research comprises a theoretical focus on efficacy beliefs and a methodological focus on quantitative analyses of small-sized groups. The specific aim of my research is to understand how dependence on others, such as an athlete depending on a teammate or coach, impacts performance and well-being. This focused program of research has two related lines:
