One aspect of my research centers on the development and implementation of brief interventions to reduce harmful drinking. I am also particularly interested in individual-level (e.g., cognitions, motivations), social (e.g., social network), and environmental (e.g., context) factors contributing to the development and maintenance of alcohol use behaviors. A growing area of research interest is in multiple health risk behaviors (e.g., dietary intake, physical activity, concurrent substance use) and their interrelationships with alcohol consumption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cathy Lau-Barraco, Ph.D. Department of Psychology, Old Dominion University Director, Behavioral Alcohol &amp; Related Studies Laboratory (BARS Lab) Curriculum Vitae Education &amp; Training Ph.D. &#8211; Clinical Psychology, University of Central Florida Postdoctoral Training &#8211; Research Institute on Addictions, SUNY Buffalo&#8230; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/\">Continue Reading &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1557,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1557"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":148,"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19\/revisions\/148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fs.wp.odu.edu\/cbarraco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
