Christa Christ's research seeks to understand the effect of genetic and environmental factors, as well as their interaction, on individual differences in social and risky behaviors (e.g. aggression, prosocial behavior, risky drinking). Her research also examines the pathway between genetic variation and behavior by examining more immediate individual or situational factors (e.g. stress, intoxication, executive function) that may increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring. In her spare time Christ loves reading, traveling, hiking and cooking. She earned her master's degree and doctorate in psychology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. She received a bachelor's degree in chemistry and sociology with a criminal justice emphasis from Doane College.
