Her current areas of research include: motivational & affective processes in persuasion (attitude functions, implicit attitudes, and HIV risk); social affordances of behavior settings and interpersonal synchrony; motivational influences on social cognition, action, and outcomes; dynamics of virtual and real interpersonal interactions (e.g., nonverbal communication; immersive virtual reality methods); meta-analysis of sociobehavioral HIV interventions; and individual differences in control needs.
