Research topics and focal points
Prof. Zietlow's research focuses on how parental mental disorders, early relationship and interaction experiences, psychobiological correlates, and family environmental factors interact to influence children´s development (particularly socio- emotional as well as mental health trajectories). In this context, she is particularly interested in depression, anxiety and stress related disorders, behavioral patterns (parent-child interaction, couple interaction, developmental paradigms), neuroendocrine correlates (e.g., cortisol and oxytocin), and peripheral physiological markers (e.g., HRV). She uses multi-modal assessment through questionnaires and interview data, ecological momentary assessment, a variety of social interaction paradigms, developmental tasks as well as imaging (fMRI) techniques and more recently genetic and epigenetic analyses as well.
