Research Interests
Throughout my research career I have focused on attachment relationships within the family. At Oakland University I have studied the ontogeny of sibling attachment bonds, the similarities and differences in sibling, best friend, and significant other bonds, and the role of sibling relationships across the life-span. Currently we are focusing our attentions on enduring intimate relationships. Please see the Research section of my personal web page for summaries of these projects.
