Dr. Mun is broadly interested in understanding how individual vulnerability to addiction develops over time, and how to decouple aggregated risk factors for addiction vulnerability. Current research activities are geared toward (1) understanding how dysregulated emotion and behavior, and early exposure to alcohol and drug in childhood and adolescence contribute to addiction vulnerability; (2) examining how and for whom personalized feedback interventions facilitate reductions in alcohol and drug use among mandated college students; and (3) extending generalized latent variable modeling to the study of clustered, repeated measures longitudinal data.
