Research Interests
Dr. Reid-Arndt’s research examines the role of neuropsychological functioning, and executive functioning in particular, in functional outcomes among medical populations. Dr. Reid-Arndt has evaluated the impact of neuropsychological changes and other psychosocial factors on functional outcomes among breast cancer survivors. She has studied the role of stress in cognitive deficits among oncology patients and has investigated the potential benefits of interventions, such as Tai Chi, for cognitive difficulties among cancer survivors.
Continuing to focus on the role of executive functioning in community integration and quality of life outcomes, Dr. Reid-Arndt’s current research is dedicated to understanding factors that affect functional outcomes among individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Her research aims to improve the utility of neuropsychological assessments for persons with TBI, by focusing on the relationship between executive functioning and self-regulation. Dr. Reid-Arndt has also collaborated with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services Head Injury Program to evaluate state-based services for individuals with TBI and to develop a web-based training module to provide education regarding TBI to non-medical professionals who may interact with persons with TBI.
