Pediatric Psychology Lab
Welcome!
The Pediatric Psychology Lab is under the direction of David Janicke, Ph.D. It is housed in the department of Clinical and Health Psychology at the University of Florida. Graduate students in the lab work toward doctorate degrees that lead to careers as professional psychologists and researchers.
The main goal of the lab is working to understand the relationship between pediatric psychosocial variables, behavior, and child health. The primary focus of current research is pediatric obesity. Past and ongoing research has also included studies involving HIV, sleep apnea, sickle cell, transplant, healthcare use, and adherence.
