Research:
My research centers on managing interpersonal conflict in family, organizational and educational settings. I have edited several books focused on issues in interpersonal communication, classroom instruction and media effects that synthesize quantitative research through meta-analysis. My research links conflict theory into practice. The research questions that I address are rooted in my experiences mediating for the Department of Justice and the U.S. Postal Service and conducting/evaluating training programs for organizations and small businesses.
