Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Kathryn Burke's research focuses on self-determination and goal attainment for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Her work investigates how educational practices and curricular philosophies influence the development of individualized education program (IEP) goals for students with complex support needs. Burke has explored the quality of these goals in relation to educational placement and has examined instructional content that promotes self-determination within IEP goals.

She is also involved in developing tools to support self-determination, including the creation of the Goal-Setting Challenge App. Her research extends to understanding the interplay of factors such as race, ethnicity, and situational coping mechanisms on student success, drawing on theories like John Henryism and control-value theory.

Burke's scholarly contributions are reflected in her h-index of 18 and over 1,170 citations across more than 200 publications. She has also served as PI and Co-PI on two NSF grants totaling over $1.3 million, focusing on geological and paleobiological research. Her collaborations include work with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
