Dr. Choe’s research interests center on the development of children’s self-regulation and externalizing behavior (e.g., aggression, hyperactivity); their complex associations with parents’ mental health and caregiving; and their contributions to the onset of psychopathology, specifically child disruptive behavior disorders and maternal depression.  He follows an interdisciplinary approach to studying psychopathology and its intergenerational transmission, utilizing observational, questionnaire, interview, and biological data.  Dr. Choe is currently examining gene-environment interactions, neural threat circuitry, parenting and neighborhood influences on the development of antisocial behavior during the first two decades of life.  His lab is also collecting pilot data for a study on preschool-age children’s self-regulation and general cognitive skills, and the role parents play in fostering young children’s cognitive and social-emotional development.
