Dr. Lorenzo studies relationships between parenting and early childhood social-emotional and behavioral functioning.

She is particularly interested in adapting behavioral parenting interventions for parents of infant and toddlers from ethnic and racial minority backgrounds. Dr. Lorenzo’s research has been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. Learn more at: http://www.thepathslab.com/
