Joe Miller

My area of interest is in Health Service Psychology, and, therefore, I support the Department's focus on Health most directly. As a licensed Psychologist, and Director of the PhD program in Clinical Psychology, my teaching and research is dedicated to graduate-level education and clinical application of psychological science.

My research interests include:

• Psychometric theory generally
• Development & validation of new tests, and adaptive tests for use with clients who are visually impaired in particular
• Diagnostic accuracy (e.g., sensitivity, speficity, predictive power) of clinical tests and measures
• Developing models for the prediction of tests' diagnostic accuracy
