Nadine Lambert (21 October 1926 – 26 April 2006) was an American psychology and education professor. She received her Ph.D. in psychology from University of Southern California, with a specialty in psychometrics. She taught at University of California, Berkeley and founded the school psychology program at the education school in 1964, her first year at UC Berkeley. The National Institutes of Mental Health supported the program for 18 years as a model for preparing school psychologists. Lambert's latest research was on the measurement of adaptive functioning, and on the developmental course of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD). A Fellow of the American Psychological Association, she has also served on its Board of Directors (1984–87) and chaired its Board of Educational Affairs from 1992-94. Lambert wrote such widely used instruments in school psychology as the AAMD Adaptive Behavior Scale (1981 and 1993 editions), and the Children’s Attention and Adjustment Survey (1992). Her numerous other writings include "Educational Reform: Challenges for Psychology and Psychologists," in ''Professional Psychology'' (1996); "Adolescent Outcomes for Hyperactive Children: Perspectives on General and Specific Patterns of Childhood Risk for Adolescent Educational, Social, and Mental Health Problems," in ''American Psychologist'' (1988); "Persistence of Hyperactive Symptoms from Childhood to Adolescence," in ''American Journal of Orthopsychiatry'' (1987); and "Conceptual Foundations for School Psychology: Perspectives from the Development of the School Psychology Program at Berkeley," in ''Professional School Psychologist'' (1986). She also edited the volume ''How Children Learn: Reforming Schools through Learner-Centered Education'' (1998). She was involved in several controversies. In 1995, she was one of 52 signatories on "Mainstream Science on Intelligence,〔Gottfredson, Linda (December 13, 1994). Mainstream Science on Intelligence. ''Wall Street Journal'', p A18.〕" an editorial written by Linda Gottfredson and published in the ''Wall Street Journal'', which declared the consensus of the signing scholars on issues related to the controversy about intelligence research that followed the publication of the book ''The Bell Curve''. At the 1998 National Institutes of Health Consensus Conference on AD/HD, she announced the results of a study suggesting that use of Ritalin might contribute to later drug abuse. Of nearly 400 children with AD/HD, those treated with Ritalin as children had double the rates of cocaine use and cigarette smoking as young adults, compared to those who hadn't taken Ritalin in childhood. She was killed in a car accident on her way to work.〔[http://www.berkeley.edu/news/media/releases/2006/05/04_Lambertobit.shtml[2]]〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nadine Lambert」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
