Anxiety Research

Research projects in our lab focus on cognitive factors in anxiety, with greatest emphasis on social and evaluation anxiety, and anxiety in sport performance. Some of the areas addressed by previous and current studies include:

sport anxiety, mindfulness, and thoughts during sport in the context of mindfulness training for athletes
anxiety sensitivity, coping with panic, and thoughts during a biological challenge with Panic Disorder patients
social anxiety, perfectionism, and focus of attention in social interaction
test anxiety, worry, and five-factor personality variables as predictors of performance among law school alumni on the bar exam
cognition and anxiety as predictors of performance in the first year of law school
social anxiety, interdependence-independence, and the transition to college
cognitive self-statements in social phobia across different types of social situations
cognition and anxiety as predictors of performance on oral examinations
