Her research primarily focuses on examining the dynamic changes and interplay between ecological, cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and biological systems that facilitate the development of suicidal thoughts and the progression into lethal suicidal behavior. Dr. Law’s existing body of research integrates a diverse range measurements such as self-report questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, pain tolerance tasks, behavioral tasks, and psychophysiology. She is also passionate towards innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance research in the field of clinical psychology. Outside of her research activity, Dr. Law also engages in a number of community outreach projects focusing on suicide awareness and prevention.
