Personal Information
Dr. Dan Tingstrom joined the USM School Psychology faculty in 1986 after receiving his Ph.D. from Tulane University in New Orleans, his hometown.  He had previously received the M.S. from Mississippi State University in 1976 and returned to New Orleans where he worked in a variety of applied settings including a testing and evaluation center, a state school for individuals with mental retardation, and with a psychologist in private practice.  Since coming to USM most of his research interests have involved issues related to the efficacy and evaluation of behavioral interventions.  He assumed responsibilities as Director of the School Psychology Program in 1992.
