Research Subject Categories

Dr. K. Marie Sizemore’s research focuses on the development of digital health interventions to address mental health and substance use in marginalized populations, with a focus on sexual and gender minorities. Specifically, her NIH-funded research takes an integrative health approach to intervention development, using positive psychology and mindfulness research to inform the development of evidence-based interventions.

Dr. Sizemore is especially interested in how research design (e.g. factorial designs, SMART, and MRT) can be leveraged to optimize interventions prior to efficacy testing in a standard RCT. She is currently leading a project which uses a hybrid experimental trial design (MRT + factorial trial) to optimize an app-based just-in-time adaptive intervention (JITAI) to support mental well-being among sexual minority men living with HIV.

Research Interests:

  • Mental health, substance use, and HIV prevention
  • Integrative health approaches (e.g., mindfulness, yoga)
  • Innovative trial design for intervention development
  • Adaptive interventions in m-health
