Dr. Terri Messman-Moore
Messman-Moore’s research program reflects three intersecting areas: interpersonal violence (child and adolescent sexual victimization, child maltreatment, adult revictimization), trauma, and emotion dysregulation. She is interested in how interpersonal violence early in development affects one’s later capacity to self-regulate and cope with stressors, and how maladaptive coping strategies emanating from emotion dysregulation increase vulnerability among survivors. She is particularly interested in how sexual violence and emotion dysregulation intersect and result in trauma such as PTSD, substance use disorders, risky sexual behavior, and complex clinical presentations.
