Research

Dr. Kegler has been integrally involved in all of Emory Prevention Research Center's core research projects, conducted through community based participatory research. The Emory Prevention Research Center's research focuses on environmental influences on healthy behavior and cancer prevention. The first two studies examined home, church and work environments qualitatively and quantitatively, with respect to how they influence nutrition, physical activity and smoking behavior. The third study piloted the use of coaches in creating environmental change that supports healthy eating and physical activity in rural homes. A randomized controlled trial of this intervention was recently completed. Her tobacco control research focuses on developing, testing and disseminating a brief intervention to promote smoke-free homes in low-income households.
