Psychology and Social Behavior I am interested in the effects of writing down your deepest thoughts and feelings about important life events ("expressive writing"), especially for outcomes important to college students (e.g., test performance). My research has examined the conditions under which expressive writing works best, using both experimental and meta-analytic methods.
