Dr. Frye received her Ph.D. in Social Psychology from the
University of Florida in 2002. To date, she has been working
on two lines of research. The first focuses on social cognition
in the context of relationships. This research, for instance,
has addressed the possibility that partners may cope with
their relationship problems, in part, by perceiving the
problems as improving over time. The second addresses spouses'
use of physical and psychological aggression in their relationships.
This research, for instance, has addressed the possibility
that partners may be particularly likely to engage in aggression
at times when they are experiencing high levels of stress.
Major Interests Social psychology, marital
relationships and on-line data collection.
