Research Interests and Current Projects
Dr. Stanley’s research interests focus primarily on
utilizing a contextually based systems perspective to better understand
underserved populations. In this respect, much of her work addresses the
importance of sociocultural aspects of identity (i.e., gender, culture, race,
ethnicity, economic status, sexual/gender identity, religion/spirituality, and
disabilities) and the interactional processes of multiple identity structures
for individuals. Dr. Stanley is currently developing several new training
programs in these areas. Her research also focuses on the importance of
protective factors that support and enhance psychological well-being. In her
training programs, experiential-based training and collaborative learning are
often used to facilitate learning.
