Julia L. Kiefer's research focuses on understanding child and adolescent development, with an emphasis on behavioral and psychological studies. Her work investigates factors contributing to peer victimization, such as anxiety sensitivity and social preference, in elementary school children. Kiefer also examines the impact of informal mentoring on adolescent dating violence victimization and subsequent substance use. She has published on the measurement of aggressive behavior in early childhood and the attitudes of allied health professionals toward evidence-based practices like Child–Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE) Training. Kiefer's collaborations include work with Lauren B. Quetsch and Timothy A. Cavell at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
