	Dr. Len Burn’s Lab is currently using latent variable modeling procedures (e.g., confirmatory factor analysis, structural regression analysis, latent growth analysis, item response theory) to study ADHD, Sluggish Cognitive Tempo, and ODD within and across countries.

	Dr. Masha Gartstein’s Infant Temperament Lab studies developmental psychopathology, temperament, parenting, and cross-cultural differences.
	Dr. Paul Strand’s Lab is concerned with the social skills development and school readiness of children and youth from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
