Background

About Robert Stromer

Robert Stromer, PhD, BCBA-D: During the first 3.5 decades of my career, I was a school psychologist, educational consultant and program coordinator, mental health clinician, university teacher, and researcher. Published accounts of my work are mostly about research on stimulus control and derived performances in humans. I served on the editorial boards of the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior and The Behavior Analyst, and was both a board member and an associate editor for the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis. For the last 12 years, I have been teaching in George Brown College’s behavioral science programs for undergraduates: I also supervised services for a classroom of children with autism. In areas of personal and professional development, my current interests concern matters of medical and health care, self-management, treatment adherence, behavior therapy, and today’s mindfulness-based therapies and self-help practices. I maintain an ambitious program of self-experimentation on matters of health and wellness, coach others in such practices, and pursue advanced studies and teacher certifications in mindfulness meditation and compassion. Going forward I hope to share lessons learned from self-help investigations with college students, parents, and colleagues, and with peers who are enjoying old age as best they can.
