Research Interests:
Health Communication and Media Effects, especially popular music
and youth pop culture, and their socialization effects on adolescents.
I'm particularly interested in media literacy, the development and
evaluation of media literacy programs, and the facilitation of media
literacy at the family level among parents and youth alike. Related
areas of interest include youths' identification and parasocial
interaction with media figures, and how these phenomena relate to
adolescent self-concept, gender attitudes, and expectancies toward
alcohol, tobacco, and sexual activity.
