About Us
The Connections Lab is committed to providing seamless research-to-practice content and processes for school psychologists and teachers. This is so research informs clinical practice while clinical practice equally informs the advancement of research and remains relevant. We strive to achieve our objective by developing and evaluating innovative educational practices and models, using open science practices, and studying the implementation of innovation in classrooms.
New this year, we will be focusing on:
Narrowing the research-to-practice gulf in school and clinical psychology
Developing and implementing a modern research methods curriculum for school/clinical psychology
Developing a workable research consortia/data sharing infrastructure in Canadian school and clinical psychology
Converting evidence-based practice and evidence-based interventions from buzzwords into useful constructs
Small and large scale investigations of implementation/de-implementation models
Exploring robustness of interventions as a research construct
Creating a seamless scientist-practitioner model of practice
