OverviewAI-generated summary
Ronna C. Turner's research investigates various aspects of health, education, and social sciences. Her work includes examining the relationship between knowledge of Roe v. Wade and political attitudes, as well as how fetal development markers influence opinions on abortion legality. Turner has also explored gender effects on perceived stress in adults with multiple sclerosis and examined translation frameworks and questionnaire design in health research.
In the realm of education, Turner's publications address faculty perceptions of online teaching and gender differences in factors related to achievement in organic chemistry. She is also involved in a National Science Foundation grant focused on bridging 2D quantum materials and engineering in STEM education, serving as a Co-Principal Investigator for this $3,000,000 award. Turner leads a research group at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and has a history of collaboration with faculty within the university, including Wen‐Juo Lo, with whom she has co-authored 37 publications.
