Kevin King

Kevin King focuses on both substantive and methodological research.

His substantive research focuses on how cognitive and emotional aspects of self-regulation develops across adolescence, how context shapes their development, and how these forms of self regulation may either enhance or buffer the effects of other risk factors on problematic alcohol and drug use.

His methodological research focuses on how to improve the quality of data analysis in the psychological sciences. This work has examined ways to screen data for invalid respondents, improve the graphical display of data analysis, and improve the application of longitudinal models.
