Jon’s research interests include interventions that promote the successful school adjustment (social, emotional, and behavioral) for preschool and primary students with emerging or serious behavioral challenges, as well as Motivational Interviewing (MI) and it’s transportation to and use in educational settings with parents, teachers, and other professionals. Over the past eight years, Jon and his colleagues / mentors have focused on infusing MI into school-based mental health services. This work has served as a platform for a number of additional lines of research.
