My Ph.D. is from Claremont Graduate University. The temperament measures that are discussed in our book and found on my Parenting by Temperament website were all developed at Cal Poly with the help of students and faculty colleagues. There are measures for both adults and children and are free of charge on the website. On a more personal level I am the mother of four children,and grandmother of eight, giving me lots of practical experience in parenting, and child development!
My co-author, Teri Jourgensen is my daughter, and is an organizational Development trainer and facilitator for the city of San Francisco. She has a Master's degree in public administration and is a certified Myers-Briggs Type Indicator trainer. Both the book and the temperament measures were our joint collaborative efforts.view less
