Arnold Sameroff is a developmental psychologist and one of the founders of the field of developmental psychopathology. His research concerns the multiple factors that contribute to mental health and illness, with a particular emphasis on resilience in the face of adversity. His “transactional model” has become central to understanding the interplay of nature and nurture in explaining the development of positive and negative outcomes for children. His presentation will address clinical and policy opportunities to promote the mental health of children and youth. 

The Lipsitt-Duchin Lecture Series is co-sponsored by Brown University and Rhode Island KIDS COUNT
