Kayla Allison's research investigates the intersections of structural inequalities, health outcomes, and societal dynamics. Her work examines the health and sociocultural correlates of HIV/AIDS among African Americans in the Deep South, exploring the legacy of slavery and employing an Afrocentric conceptual framework. Allison also studies the relationship between strained masculinity and mass violence, including mass shootings, and assesses the long-term impact of school punishment, such as suspension, on self-rated health from adolescence to midlife. Additionally, she conducts research on police responses to individuals experiencing homelessness. Allison's scholarly contributions include work on bias homicide, for which she co-developed an open-source data approach. Her scholarship is characterized by an h-index of 7 with 15 publications and 185 citations.
