Dr. Izumi's research centers on school mental health, with a focus on universal screening for social-emotional and behavioral (SEB) risks. He investigates the psychometric properties of screening tools like the SAEBRS, particularly examining differential item functioning by race, gender, and grade level.

These efforts aim to improve early identification and equitable support for students at risk.

His recent publications reveal a strong trend in educational assessment, particularly in SEB screening and reading interventions. He examines both behavioral and academic domains, emphasizing data-driven decision-making, equity in assessment, and personalized intervention strategies. His work often involves large-scale datasets and collaborative research with experts in school psychology and special education.
