Judith Moskowitz, PhD, MPHAssociate Professor in Residence, Department of Medicine, UCSFJudith Moskowitz, PhD, MPH, is an Associate Professor in Residence in the Department of Medicine at UCSF. She received her PhD in Social Psychology from Dartmouth, and her MPH in epidemiology from UC Berkeley. Her research is focused on coping and emotion in the context of health-related chronic stress. Using both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, she examines how caregivers and those with chronic illness appraise and cope with the illness-related stress and how these processes are related to well-being. She is the PI on a longitudinal study funded by NIMH to examine the occurrence, predictors, and functions of positive emotion in people newly testing positive for HIV. Other current projects include coping and well being in maternal caregivers of children with HIV or other chronic illnesses; meaningful events as coping with chronic illness and caregiving; and illness appraisals as predictors of health related outcomes in people with HIV.
