Selected Projects 20<strong>16</strong>-<strong>18</strong><br />
During my first semester as a transfer student here<br />
at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth I was<br />
presented with an opportunity to join a research study.<br />
My advisor, Dr. Robin Locke-Arkerson, was looking<br />
for interested students to participate in research<br />
conducted in her Child Emotion Center. Research<br />
projects in the Child Emotion Center examine emotional<br />
development in children, with specific interest<br />
in understanding how various emotional, cognitive,<br />
and biological processes influence social and emotional<br />
behavior. Current and future projects of the<br />
center include individual differences in emotional<br />
behavior, emotional understanding, neuroendocrine<br />
(cortisol) and cardiac physiology, attention, language,<br />
aggressive behavior, bullying, victimization,<br />
peer rejection, and loneliness.<br />
