OverviewAI-generated summary

Veronica Hire's research investigates the complex interplay between psychological factors, social behaviors, and sleep health, particularly in the context of significant life events like the COVID-19 pandemic. Her work has explored how poverty and perceived stress contribute to insomnia symptom severity, and how social media usage before bed may disrupt sleep continuity. Hire has also examined the relationship between sleep disturbances and mental health outcomes, including depression and increased alcohol use. Her research has specifically addressed racial disparities in sleep during the COVID-19 pandemic and the predictive role of sleep reactivity in depressive symptoms.
