<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since joining the Johns Hopkins University faculty in 1989, Rebok has pursued research in two interrelated areas: 1) the design and implementation of preventive trials targeted at childhood antecedents of adolescent and adult psychopathology,
including depression, early achievement problems, and poor concentration, and 2) the neurocognitive predictors of functional abilities and decline in demented and nondemented older adults and their modifiability through interactive cognitive interventions.
His two research streams converge around a common focus on attentional and cognitive parameters of maladaptive behavior, plasticity of functioning, perceived competence or self-efficacy as a variable linking physiological, psychological, and social function,
and short- and long-term outcomes of preventive intervention and treatment.<o:p></o:p></p>
