Michael W. Vasey studies anxiety and related emotional difficulties in children, adolescents, and adults, with a focus on how attention, physiological arousal (such as heart rate variability), and emotion regulation contribute to worry, depression, and comorbid mental health problems. His work includes developing and testing treatments like attention training and attention bias modification for youth with anxiety disorders, as well as examining how emotion regulation and temperament relate to psychological well-being in children and their relationships with caregivers and peers.
Publication output was more active in the mid-to-late 2010s (peaking around 2017 and 2020) but has slowed considerably in recent years, with very few outputs from 2022 onward.
