OverviewAI-generated summary
Michele Kilmer's research investigates autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in pediatric populations, with a focus on interventions and caregiver factors. Her work has examined the implications of surveillance reports for primary care clinicians and explored the effectiveness of animal-assisted therapy in improving prosocial behavior and emotional regulation in autistic children. Kilmer has also studied the relationship between caregiver adverse childhood experiences and the age of autism diagnosis, as well as predictors of caregiver mental health related to ASD evaluation timing.
In addition to her clinical research, Kilmer contributes to nursing education by developing and evaluating models for integrating writing across the curriculum in Doctor of Nursing Practice programs. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 4, with 16 total publications and 52 citations. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Minju Hong, Emily Shah, and Danielle Randolph, and Sarah Huetter from the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station.
