Carolyn H. Webster-Stratton, Ph.D. is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Washington. While at the university of Washington, she was the Director of the university's Parenting Clinic.[1] She is the founder of the Incredible Years Series for Parents, Children, and Teachers—a program dedicated to advancing "the social and emotional behavior of children" and to "deliver evidence-based programs and materials that develop positive parent-teacher-child relationahips and assist in preventing and treating behavior problems and promoting social, emotional, and academic competence".[2] This program was selected by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention as a best practice for 3 to 10 year-olds in 1999.[3] She is both a licensed clinical psychologist (since 1983) and a nurse practitioner (since 1974).[4]

Dr. Webster-Stratton began her undergraduate career studying nursing at the University of Toronto. She later received Masters in pediatric nursing and in public health from Yale University and the Yale School of Medicine, respectively. She received her Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from the University of Washington.[5]


Research[edit]

After completing her dissertation, Effectiveness of Videotape Modelling Parental Education, Dr. Webster-Stratton focused her research on the "development and parenting of children between the ages of 3 and 8 years"[5]. Her work shifted towards the "management and treatment of aggressive and defiant behaviour as well as the prevention of more serious antisocial behaviour"[5]. Throughout her career, she has "conducted numerous randomized control group studies to evaluate the effectiveness of intervention programs for promoting children’s social and emotional competence, school readiness skills and academic success and for preventing conduct problems in high risk populations"[1]. Dr. Webster-Stratton has also conducted research and developed programs for Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Conduct Disorder, and ADHD. Most notably, Dr. Webster-Stratton developed the Incredible Years Series, which aim to prevent and treat behavioral problems in young children and are widely used in the US and at least 20 other countries.[6]

Her research has been funded by the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)[7][6][8][9][10][11][12][13][14], the New York State Health Foundation (NYSHF)[15], the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) [11][14], and the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) [11].
