Kelly Kim

I am a Ph.D. student in the Clinical Psychology program.

Research Interests:

• Intensive longitudinal design and analyses (e.g., multilevel modeling)
• Sleep and circadian disturbances as transdiagnostic mechanisms in mental health disorders
• Temporal relationships between insomnia and depression in special populations (e.g., shift workers, athletes, emerging adults)
• Adherence to, mechanisms of change in, and predictors of response in behavioral sleep medicine interventions
• Measurement differences in sleep (e.g., self-report, actigraphy)
