Dr. Mathews has taught at
Converse since 1967. Although trained in
classical experimental psychology, his interest
gravitated to the experimental analysis of
behavior and to applied behavior analysis. In
1997, he spent a sabbatical leave at
UCLA studying the application of behavior
analysis principles as they have contributed to
early intervention in autism. Currently in
addition to his teaching responsibilities, he
supervises intervention teams for several local
children who have been diagnosed with autism.
His students make up the backbones of those
intervention teams. He offers courses in General
Psychology, Psychology of Learning, Statistics,
Abnormal Psychology, Sensation and Perception,
Cognitive Psychology, and Early Intervention in
Autism.
Dr. Mathews received his PhD, MA, and BA from the University of Virginia.
