OverviewAI-generated summary

Matt R. Judah's research investigates psychological and behavioral factors contributing to mental health challenges, particularly among college students. His work examines the interplay of emotions, cognitive processes, and mental health outcomes, with a focus on conditions such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Judah has published on the role of boredom and repetitive negative thinking in student loneliness during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression can moderate the relationship between social anxiety and depression. He also studies how attentional control influences generalized anxiety disorder and symptoms, and how different aspects of emotion dysregulation correspond to neural activity in response to affective stimuli.

His research also extends to the neural correlates of emotional processing, examining reward positivity in relation to depression and exploring emotion regulation strategies' association with brainwave activity. Judah has been involved in evaluating mental health interventions, including suicide prevention training for university health service providers. His scholarly output includes 72 publications, accumulating over 1,544 citations and an h-index of 22, designating him as a highly cited researcher. He actively collaborates with colleagues at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Hannah C. Hamrick, Morgan Middlebrooks, Russell Mach, and Benjamin Swanson.
