Clinical Psychology Laboratory Complex
|
 |
The department's clinical psychology
laboratory complex is home to the research
of Dr. Timothy M. Osberg. Dr. Osberg's
research currently focuses on the use of the
MMPI-2 in correctional samples and a
comparison of the MMPI-A and MMPI-2
profiles of late adolescents. Dr. Osberg also
conducts research on the psychology of
obesity and its treatment. He is currently
developing a new measure of the construct |
of irrational food beliefs, which he believes
plays a role in succeeding at weight loss &
maintenance. The group research room
pictured above enables testing and therapy
with groups of participants. A one-way
mirror allows for observational studies. The
clinical psych lab complex also provides
office space for student research assistants
and students conducting senior honors
thesis research. Danielle Poland is pictured |

MMPI studies. The complex's group room
is the site of weekly seminar meetings for
students participating in the practicum
program. They are placed in various
community agencies and meet to discuss
their experiences with Dr. Osberg (pictured
at left). The clinical psychology research
group, comprised of students with interests
in clincal research, also meets here weekly |
