Forcino Lab

Lab Focus

I am a child clinical psychologist and affiliated with the M.S. in Clinical/Counseling Psychology program. My lab focuses on parenting, family relations, and the use of behaviorally-based principles and practices to solve problems of childhood. I am interested in psychological disorders of childhood (e.g., Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Sleep Disorders, Enuresis/Encopresis), as well as more common problems of childhood (e.g., sibling conflict, noncompliance, bedtime problems, and difficulty with toilet training). 

Current Projects

  • New Mother Survey: Survey exploring maternal depression, infant temperament, infant sleep, parenting expectations
  • Super Siblings: Childhood sibling conflict intervention 
  • Parent Training: Brief therapeutic interventions to improve parent-child relationships
  • Sibling Bullying: Survey exploring sibling bullying

Students Interested in Joining the Lab

Unfortunately, I will not have any openings for undergraduate students for the 2023-24 year. 

If you are a graduate student, please email me at sforcino@csusb.edu.
