While the research interests of the members on the group vary considerably, one of the main objectives is to more fully investigate the psychometric properties of the instruments currently being used to assess personality characteristics. The group is headed by Dr. Darwin Dorr, and consists of both graduate and undergraduate students. Over the last decade the group has been very active in the community in building collaborative relationships with local agencies, the most successful of which has been our relationship with the University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita.
