Summary

I specialize in outcomes research, measurement error in survey research, complex organizations and decision making, and scale development. My research in measurement development has been in diverse populations, from adults experiencing fecal incontinence to children with cancer. My work on measurement error in survey research has focused on traditionally identified sources of error with an emphasis on comparisons between mail and telephone administration.
