Research and Teaching Interests:
Dr. Chronis' research focuses broadly on comprehensive behavioral and combined behavioral/pharmacological treatments for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Her specific research interests involve the impact of parental psychopathology (particularly maternal depression) and overall family functioning on parenting behavior and child treatment outcome. Recent projects include: (1) a study evaluating the impact of a cognitive-behavioral depression prevention program for mothers of children with ADHD; and (2) a comparison of family functioning variables and parental psychopathology in a large sample of preschool-aged children with and without ADHD. Current courses taught include Child Psychopathology, Interventions with Children & Adolescents, and Child Clinical Laboratory.
