Her main research interests include children’s consumer behavior, materialism, the application of psycholinguistic theory to marketing communications, and gift-giving and ritualistic consumption.

Her work has appeared in leading marketing journals, including Journal of Consumer Research, Journal of Marketing, Journal of the Association for Consumer Research, Journal of Consumer Psychology, and International Journal of Research in Marketing. She has also edited two books (Brick & Mortar Shopping in the 21st Century and Psycholinguistic Phenomena in Marketing Communications), and is co-editor of the forthcoming APA Handbook of Consumer Psychology.
