Research summary
AI-generated

H. Dorian Hatch studies close relationships, sexuality, and psychotherapy, with particular attention to pornography use, its motives and measurement, and how it relates to relationship satisfaction and behavior. Recent work also explores technology in mental health, including comparing AI (chatbot) responses to human therapists, as well as topics like narcissism, mindfulness, and religious development in young people. This research combines quantitative surveys and conceptual analysis to understand romantic relationships, sexual behavior, and mental health support.
