The Personality, Assessment, and Clinical Outcomes (PACO) lab is a research lab under the direction of Joye Anestis, Ph.D. The PACO lab is interested in multiple aspects of personality, behavior, measurement, and intervention. Our research projects primarily fall into two categories: 1) investigations into understanding externalizing behaviors, disorders, and personality in adults and 2) mental health treatment outcomes and engagement. Our lab explores these research questions using diverse methodology (e.g., questionnaires, behavioral paradigms, psychophysiology) and with diverse settings/samples (e.g., outpatients, offenders, community members).
