Orientation of the Clinic

The SIUE Attention & Behavior Clinic is dedicated to providing psychological services that are supported by research and considered “best practice” in the field.  As such, clinic staff use assessment tools that have well-established reliability and validity.  Additionally, interventions offered at the clinic have been supported by research in the field of psychology.  Furthermore, the clinic takes a data-based decision making approach with each child and family.

The clinic also adopts the theoretical orientation of the Clinical Child and School psychology graduate program.  Specifically, the clinic takes the ecological approach which emphasizes the fit between children and their environment.  Interventions are designed to enhance the skills of the child to better meet the demands of the environment, change the environment, or both.
