Interests

Broadly, Jonathan is interested in identifying nomothetic trends in idiographic processes; how can we use individual-level data to identify group-level commonalities. He has conducted research related to the areas of community detection, LASSO regularization, and dynamic network modeling (e.g., GIMME, graphical VAR). Substantively, he is interested in suicidal processes and how to use intensively gathered data to distinguish ideators from actors of suicide attempts.
