CHILD AND FAMILY SPECIALIZATIONAbout the ProgramThe Child and Family specialization is designed to
provide students with a grounding in theory, research, and practice
concerning the psychological and behavioral problems of children, adolescents,
and families. Attention is given to the main areas of psychopathology,
assessment, and intervention, with consideration of developmental, systems-related,
and cultural issues. The goal of the specialization is to provide students
with a solid foundation, which they can then build upon in their later
training experiences. RequirementsThe requirements to fulfill the child and family specialization are the following: Courses

and family therapy. He has developed two assessment instruments to facilitate
evaluation and research in the areas of family processes. The Chabot
Emotional Pursuer-Distance Movement Scale measures one’s interpersonal
style in the context of an intimate relationship. The Chabot Differentiation
Scale is a measure of intrapsychic emotional differentiation utilizing
a Bowenian definition of differentiation. Current research with these
instruments has focused on cross-cultural variations. Dr. Chabot has
made numerous presentations in the area of family therapy and more recently
coauthored the family systems theory chapter in the APA publication,
Theories of Psychotherapy: Origins and Evolution. Dr. Chabot is on the
faculty of the Center for Family Learning, a postgraduate training center
in family therapy, and maintains an active family therapy practice.
He is a fellow member of the American Psychological Association, the
American Orthopsychiatric Association, and the American Association
