Dr Ramey’s research has focused on the application of behaviour analytic interventions to help improve the happiness and overall quality of life of young children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). She is particularly interested in how behavioural indicators of mood can be measured as outcome variables during these interventions.

Her research background also includes the use of reinforcement to improve behavioural variability, the use of functional assessment to address challenging behaviours, and the psychosexual development of adolescents with ASD.
