Dr. White applies theories and research from social
psychology to problems of sexual aggression and victimization, social influence,
and gender issues. Her research has focuses primarily on gender issues
and aggression using research techniques ranging from laboratory experiments
to surveys and interviews. She has published numerous articles and chapters
during this time. Her most recent publications reflect an ecological developmental
perspective to aggression and violence. She is a frequent speaker at national
and international conferences.
Current

Dr. White is currently analyzing data on dating
violence and sexual assault among adolescents and college students, based
on a five-year longitudinal study funded by the National Institute of Mental
Health, with additional funding from National Institute of Justice. She
is also conducting pilot projects looking at the relationship between child
abuse and delinquency in girls and predictors of risky sexual behavior
in adolescent girls.
