Stephen Hinshaw Chair & Professor Ph.D., University of California at Los Angeles
Psychology Department Chair Hinshaw's interests lie in the fields of clinical child and adolescent psychology and developmental psychopathology. Major themes of his work include the diagnostic validity of childhood disorders, the role of family and peer relationships in normal and atypical development, the early prediction of behavioral and learning problems, the neuropsychology and neurobiology of impulsive and externalizing behavior in childhood, expressions of psychopathology in female samples, and the implementation of combinations of psychosocial and pharmacologic intervention for children with externalizing behavior disorders - with strong emphasis on moderators and mediators of outcome. Increasingly, his research interests are focusing on adolescent and young adult outcomes, as the youth in his various projects continue to participate in prospective, longitudinal studies. In addition, his research program has an additional area of focus, the stigmatization of mental illness, with interest in a variety of related topics (e.g., interpersonal manifestations of stigma, implicit attitudes, developmental processes, media influences, dehumanization, international efforts to combat stigma). For many years he conducted intensive summer research programs for atypical and comparison populations. Observations of ongoing behavior allow investigations of the interrelationships among social behavior, peer reputation, moral reasoning, parenting style, and diagnostic status. The female sample who participated in the late 1990s constitutes the largest preadolescent study of girls with ADHD in existence; they are completing their prospective 10-year follow-up. Another major project involves a multi-site, long-term clinical trial of medication and psychosocial interactions for children with ADHD: The MTA Study). As the Principal Investigator for the Berkeley site, Hinshaw has conducted investigations of predictors, moderators, and mediators of treatment outcome. Prospective follow-up investigations into adulthood are now underway. A third federally funded study involves a clinical trial of integrated psychosocial treatment (family, school, and child components) for children with the Inattentive type of ADHD, conducted jointly at Berkeley and UCSF. Students who work with Dr. Hinshaw learn extensively about the assessment of childhood behavioral disorders; theoretical linkages among cognitive, linguistic, behavioral, and peer-related systems in normal and atypical development; the writing of both empirical research reports and review articles; and social and clinical issues related to stigmatization. Both experimental and longitudinal research design skills are emphasized, with particular focus on data analytic tools. Students are encouraged to receive broad training in child and adult psychopathology, psychological evaluation, multivariate statistics, developmental psychology, social psychology, and psychopharmacology.
