Piehler awarded Grant-in-Aid

Professor Timothy Piehler

Department of Family Social Science assistant professor Timothy Piehler received a Grant-in-Aid of Research, Artistry, and Scholarship from the Office of the Vice President for Research.

The $25,000 award will support pilot data collection for a project of Piehler’s.

The goal of the project is to develop measures of adolescent susceptibility to peer contagion (i.e. negative peer influence processes) in group-based interventions for youth with conduct problems.

Piehler joined CEHD/FSoS this fall after several years in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Minnesota Medical School.
