Research Interests

 My research crosses health and kinesiology disciplinary boundaries, and some activities reflect the interests of faculty and students with whom I have worked. I have been involved in a range of projects in motor behavior, teacher education, exercise physiology, exercise psychology, health, and sport management. My lines of scholarship have primarily focused on three areas:

(a) Applied motor learning research examining “instructional variables” in teaching and learning motor skills: modeling, feedback, practice scheduling, and instructional cues/attentional focus.

(b) Career development issues among teachers and other professionals (e.g., burnout, efficacy, morale).

(c)  The COVID-19 pandemic, specifically experiences, concerns, and behaviors of university students and faculty/staff; the impact of the pandemic on work and academic success; and COVID vaccine adoption/hesitancy.
