COVID Care Project
2020 - 2024
​
During the pandemic, I investigated how mothers with young children under three years-of-age and college students were coping with the pandemic. The purpose of these projects were 1) to investigate this non-normative life event, 2) to continue to be research active in a period when much psychological research was stalled, and 3) to have projects that allowed for student research. COVID CARE (Child Attachment, Relationships, and Emotions), was a collaboration with professors at the University of Texas at Austin (Drs. Debby Jacobvitz and Nancy Hazen). Our team developed a four-wave longitudinal study administering a battery of surveys related to stress, coping, parenting, and child functioning to 284 women through the Prolific on-line platform.
