Research Interests

My research program focuses on understanding the psychology of workplace diversity, specifically how individuals and organizations resist or demonstrate readiness for diversity. My work is also concerned with the organizational experiences of marginalized groups, namely people of color, women, and sexual minorities and the impact their work and professional experiences has on their career mobility and overall well-being. My instructional program includes courses in the Psychology of Prejudice, Race and Identity, and  Diversity in Organizations. RED provides my students and me the unique opportunity to integrate these programs of research and instruction in order to further the diversity and effectiveness missions of UGA units, non-profit institutions, school districts, and traditional workplaces through workshop delivery, meeting facilitation, and diversity climate assessments.

Georgia Gambling and Decision Lab, Dr. Adam Goodie

The Georgia Gambling and Decision Lab is based in the Psychology Department of the University of Georgia. The lab is collaborative in nature, and has been directed by Dr. Adam Goodie since 1998. Our research is dedicated to the multidisciplinary domains of gambling studies and judgment and decision making under uncertainty. The primary areas of current research interest are: 1) understanding gaming, gambling, and other risk-based behaviors; 2) approaches to the origin, maintenance, prevention and treatment of problem gambling; 3) personality effects and individual differences in decision making and gambling; and 4) cross-cultural differences in gambling and risk attitude. 

Culture and Identity Lab, Dr. Brian Haas

Our work seeks to understand what shapes people's identity. Our research investigates how people think about their identity, changes to their identity, and how identity is different according to cultural context. Many of our studies involve a personality approach to understanding individual differences in identity. The overarching goal of our research is to illuminate what makes people who they are as dynamic complex individuals living across the world.

Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory (CCNL), Drs. Brett Clementz and Jennifer McDowell

The Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory is a collaborative effort based in the Department of Psychology at the University of Georgia. Under the direction of Drs. Brett Clementz and Jennifer McDowell, members of the laboratory are engaged in a variety of experimental and theoretical inquires within the realm of cognitive neuroscience.

Research is conducted using sophisticated brain imaging technologies, such as high-density EEG, whole-head MEG, and fMRI. With these technologies at their disposal, CCNL researchers can address diverse research interests from multiple perspectives.

Primary ongoing areas of research include studies of 1) basic sensory operations (visual and auditory processing) and motor performance (saccadic eye movements), 2) the differences in basic and higher level cognitive operations between normal and psychiatric groups, most notably those with schizophrenia, 3) brain plasticity associated with repeated practice, 4) brain changes that occur during aging, and 5) prospective memory. Personnel at the CCNL also collaborate with other UGA researchers in programs within and outside the Psychology Department on studies involving topics ranging from physical exercise, to judgment and decision making, and social rejection.

The lab is involved in joint research with universities both in the United States and internationally, including multi-site collaborative studies with Augusta University, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, University of Chicago Medical Center, and Yale School of Medicine (known as the "Bipolar Schizophrenia Network on Intermediate Phenotypes" or "BSNIP" collaborative).

Justin Lavner

Professor, Director of Clinical Training, Clinical Program

Dr. Lavner will not be reviewing applications for a new graduate student for Fall 2026 admission.

I am a clinical psychologist whose research aims to understand and improve family health and well-being, particularly among underserved and marginalized populations. My work examines (1) how and why relationships change; (2) the effects of minority and contextual stressors such as racial discrimination, financial strain, and sexual stigma on individual and family functioning and the protective factors that buffer these effects; and (3) preventive interventions to strengthen relational, physical, and mental health among individuals, couples, and families.

My new book, the Research Handbook on Couple and Family Relationships, co-edited with Nickola Overall and Jeffry Simpson, is now available here.
