Professor Cyders’ research focuses on the integration of extreme emotional states with impulsive behaviors and the neurocognitive mechanisms that underlie such behaviors. Her research team examines, and seeks to predict, how such tendencies increase likelihood for a wide range of maladaptive risk taking, including alcohol use, drug use, gambling, risky sexual practices, and other clinical diagnoses and problems.
