Gomes,
Hilary:
(Developmental Neuropyschology and
Electrophysiology) Dr Gomes research has been primarily motivated
by herdesire to better understand mature language organization and
language acquisition in normal children and the processes underlying
aberrant language development in impaired populations. In most of
herresearch she has employed event-related potentials (ERPs). In
September of 2001, herfirst RO1 grant was funded by the National
Institute for Deafness and Communication Disorders (NIDCD). This
grant will support both behavioral and electrophysiological studies
that will explore auditory sensory memory and attention in children
with specific language impairment (SLI) compared to normal children
and children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
She believes that deficits in automatic processing and attentional
control in the auditory modality may be contributing to difficulties
seen in SLI.

Gomes is the Director of the Neuropsychological Center for Children
of the City College of New York.

Rosario,
Margaret:
(Identity and exposure to community
violence)
Margaret Rosario, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor in Psychology.
Her research interests are in two broad and related areas. She is
concerned with the multidimensional interfaces of identity. These
include the relations between personal and social identity, particularly
as tensions arise between them. She also focuses on the intersection
of multiple identities because an indiviual is not a function of
a single identity, but a combination of several identities (e.g.,
gender, ethnic, religious, sexual). Of concern is what happens when
conflicts arise among identities; how the conflict is managed; what
implications do the conflict and its management have for the individual's
health; and how the conflict and its effects change over time. Professor
Rosario's second research area includes the influence of exposure
to community violence on a host of adaptational and health-related
outcomes. Potential mediators and moderators of these relations
are of critical interest.

Smiley,
Ellen:
(Computer-based instruction, website design)
Professor Smiley's research focuses on the examination of computer-based
learning. One set of questions concerns the relationship between
the characteristics of computer-presented information and learning
of that information; for example, to what extent do multimedia presentations,
with sound and moving images, promote or impede learning? Another
related area of interest is in the construction of computer-based
materials to promote more advanced
thinking and problem-solving skills. As part of the research training,
Masters students will learn how to build PowerPoint presentations,
create and edit digital movies and build web sites. We also read
and discuss relevant learning theories Subjects are run in a computer
lab on the seventh floor of the NAC.

in linking diagnostic material, especially psychological test data,
to vicissitudes of treatment. How do certain object representational
patterns in test material, for example, relate to capacities for
using psychotherapy, the capacity to play, the nature of transference,
the tolerance for interpretation etc. Reciprocally, how do certain
manifestations in treatment relate back to certain test configurations.
