The primary focus is detailing learning diathesis models for mental health issues such as anxiety disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder and major depressive disorder. Another line of research is toward the development of objective signs in mild traumatic brain injury to break the reliance on self-report symptoms. Dr. Servatius has active collaborations with the Department of Defense with the Stress & Motivated Behavior Institute (SMBI) as a centerpiece of the collaborative efforts.
