Much of my current research focuses on an individual difference construct called the Consideration of Future Consequences (CFC). CFC concerns differences in the extent to which individuals are influenced by the immediate versus distant consequences of their behavior. CFC has been found to influence a wide variety of phenomena, including attitudes and persuasion, counterfactual reasoning, health-related behaviors such as practicing safe sex and decisions to be screened for the HIV virus, and recycling. CFC is measured by the CFC Scale. You are welcome to download a copy of the scale and use it in your research. If you do, and are willing, you might e-mail me and tell me a little about the research you are doing.

In addition, I continue to maintain research interests in attitudes and persuasion.
