Jonathan M. Campbell, Ph.D.

I am currently an Associate Professor of Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology. My research interests focus on differential diagnosis and treatment of children with autism spectrum disorders and the introduction of children with autism into inclusive educational settings. I am an Associate Editor for School Psychology Quarterly and an editorial board member for the Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment. I am a member of Divisions 16 (School Psychology), 33 (Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities), 53 (Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology) and 54 (Society of Pediatric Psychology) of the American Psychological Association. I teach doctoral level seminars on autism spectrum disorders (EPSY 8120) pediatric psychology applied to school settings (EPSY 8150) and social-emotional assessment of children (EPSY 7200). A list of recent publications appears below. Student co-authors are italicized.
