Autor

Leslie D. Frazier is the principal investigator and leader of the Health & Development Lab (HDL) in the Department of Psychology at Florida International University. She works with scholarly collaborators from around the world, community partners, graduate students, and undergraduate students. A developmental health psychologist, Dr. Frazier is interested in the intersections among psychosocial factors and identity/sense of self within the contexts of health and chronic illness in emerging adulthood and later life. Her research, funded by the Mental Research Institute, focuses on how psychosocial, sociocultural, and interpersonal factors impact our perceptions of ourselves, our health, and our well-being. Dr. Frazier and her team are currently investigating the factors that promote identity in people with disability, and the risk and resilience factors related to eating disorders in midlife menopausal women.
