Joshua Gold
Assistant Professor of Health Science
Office: Solano Hall-First Floor; Room 1160
Grounded in the socio-ecological model, my research program operates at the intersection of social-health psychology and public health, exploring the role social and psychological factors play in health promotion and chronic disease prevention. In particular, my studies have focused on obesity across the lifespan and its relationship with psychosocial constructs such as rurality, subjective-wellbeing, and weight-based stigmatization. More recently, my research and training have adopted an implementation and dissemination focus as I look to build a research program aimed at developing, testing, evaluating, and disseminating healthy behavior change interventions in underserved communities
