Research Interests:
My research is currently centered in two areas. I am finishing a statistical analysis of the academic effects of two different academic support programs. We have used freshmen cohorts and a freshman seminar to help students better adjust to college. These studies have applied various statistical tools to a large data base of the affected students. I have used ANOVA, Discriminant analysis, and Regression to identify the effect of the support programs. Applied statistical analysis is consistent with my teaching. My second area of research is monetary policy. In particular I am looking at the impact of the Fed's policy disclosure procedures on financial markets. The Fed's policy structure and financial markets supports my teaching in economics.
