Early life and education

Kring was an undergraduate student at Ball State University in Indiana, where she studied psychology.[1] She moved to the Stony Brook University for graduate research, focusing on clinical psychology.[1] Kring considered the relationship between emotional expression and autonomic arousal in people with schizophrenia.[2] Whilst completing her graduate studies she worked at the Bellevue Hospital.

Research and career

In 1991, Kring was appointed an assistant professor at Vanderbilt University. She spent eight years at Vanderbilt, eventually becoming associate professor, before joining the University of California, Berkeley in 1999. Kring serves as Director of the Emotion & Social Interaction (ESI) Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley. Her research considers how affective processes change in people with psychological disorders.[3] In particular, Kring investigates how people with schizophrenia![4][5] had anhedonia.[6][7] Anhedonia describes the diminished capacity of people to experience pleasure.[6]

Kring is part of the Healthy Brains Project, a long-term study that looks to identify predictors of neural outcomes.[8]
