Professor Langdon's research foci are a bit of an eclectic blend of interests.  Current work includes looking at the ways in which one defines respect and how that is related to interpersonal peer relations Another line of research involves various issues related to body image including exploring the relationship between body image and identity in modern and ballet dancers.  Lastly, she has studied the relationship between school climate and bullying, specifically looking at how students in middle and high school perceive interpersonal peer relations in their schools and how that is related to whether/when they intervene with bullying.
