A priority of the center is to develop research expertise in students and thus, involvement of students in research studies is a goal. A few are highlighted below:
Professor Vincent Van Hasselt is the principal investigator on a research project whose objective is to conduct interviews of military offenders and to determine their motivations for committing acts of interpersonal violence; and use the resulting data to develop theoretical constructs designed to improve mitigation and prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery measures relating to acts of interpersonal violence. CPS doctoral student Andrea Brockman is co-investigator on the grant.
Assistant Professor Stephen Russo is principal investigator on this study that will be used primarily to examine the utility of biofeedback as an assessment tool in the clinical management of sport-related concussion. Additionally, the study will seek to further explore the relationship between cerebral blood flow following sport-related concussion and mild traumatic brain injuries in a sample of high school and collegiate athletes. Andrew Kusienski (HPD) and four CPS doctoral students are co- investigators on the grant.
Latino Parental Acceptability towards the Human Papillomavirus Vaccine
Associate Professor Ana Fins is the principal investigator on a project that seeks to elucidate barriers to parental vaccine acceptability and help inform the development of interventions that can increase parental acceptability of the vaccine. Mindy Ma (FAR) and four CPS doctoral students are co- investigators on the grant.
