Helena Kraemer, Ph.D.

Dr. Kraemer's research focuses on research methods in the behavioral aspects of medicine. Her work has expanded from psychiatry and health psychology to other fields including cardiology, epidemiology, pediatrics, and oncology. Currently, she is concerned with problems arising in risk research, particularly related to moderation and mediation, as well as effect sizes that are both clinically and practically interpretable and statistically valid.
