The Developmental Neuropsychology Lab is run by Paul T. Cirino, Ph.D. We have a primary interest in understanding the neuropsychological, developmental, and intervention aspects of neurodevelopmental disorders. Particular populations of interest include students with learning difficulties in mathematics and reading, including their overlap and comorbidity. We have a specific interest in what we call “domain general neurocognitive functions”, which include intuitive but difficult to define concepts including executive function, attention, and processing speed. We work both theoretically and empirically to understand the nature and structure of such skills, and how these contribute to our understanding of why achievement areas overlap, and how we might use this information to assist those who struggle.
We are interested in the neuropsychological underpinnings of math skills, how they vary according to math outcome, and how these relationships vary over the course of scholastic development (elementary, middle, and high school, as well as college). An example is a previous grant from the Institute of Educational Sciences (IES, R305A110067) concerning algebraic learning, for which Dr. Cirino is PI. Read more about this project. Most recently, we continue to work on a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF, #1760760), on math learning disability (MLD) in young adults, for which Dr. Cirino is also PI. This project is designed to improve our understanding of the structure of math and related skills, how MLD might be identified, and how to externally validate the construct. Read more about this project.
We are also interested in reading skills, and their domain general concomitants. Dr. Cirino was PI for two iterations of the neurocognitive aspect of the Texas Center for Learning Disabilities (TCLD), funded by the National Institutes of Health (NICHD, P50 HD052117), which focused on executive function (EF) for the first 5 years, and then attention for the next 5 years. Read a news story about this project. Read a second news story about this project.
Planned projects seek to more directly examine the overlap among achievement areas, and the role of neurocognitive skills, using a combination of correlational and experimental designs.
The lab is interested in prospective doctoral students whose interests strongly align with those above research areas. The major emphasis of clinical neuropsychology as situated within the broader clinical program affords the development of clinical skills in both therapy and neuropsychology, although the focus of the lab per se is on research.
