Alice Frye, Ph.D.Postdoctoral Research FellowAlice Frye has an MPH from the University of Michigan and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Emory University. She is a developmental psychopathologist by training and her overarching goal is to combine the population level orientation typical of public health with the robust theoretical approach that characterizes developmental psychopathology in her research endeavors. She has a long-standing interest in the study and remediation of psychopathology in high-risk adolescents, and is especially focused on adolescent coping, stress, trauma and internalizing and externalizing problems using the model of stress and coping developed by Bruce Compas and his colleagues. She is also interested in family environment transactions related to adolescent psychopathology, including the development of attachment and parent-child interactions. Dr. Frye's other area of focus is on methodology, chiefly quantitative methods, including structural equation approaches such as latent growth modeling, mixture modeling and other types of multi-level models. Her preceptors are Dr. Pamela Alexander and Dr. Allison Tracy.
