Research Interests

Dr. Steiner's research is based on developmental approaches to psychopathology which emphasize the conjoint study of normative and non-normative phenomena, and the complex interaction of biological, psychological and social variables in the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders.
He has published extensively on the details of this model and has applied it to the study of normal and abnormal aggression, responses to stress and traumatic events, and the mental processes helping people adjust to adversity across the life span.

He is currently investigating the application of psycholinguitsic methods to measure conscious and unconscious mental states, especially emotions and self regulation. He is using computerized text analytic techniques to characterize referential activity, emotional expression, event specific memories and the reconstituting and healing effects of oral and written emotional expression.

He is studying non-clinical and clinical populations with these methods.
