University of Connecticut - Rob Henning (I/O Psychology), Vicki Magley (I/O Psychology), and Nick Warren (Ergonomics Technology Center, University of Connecticut Health Center) have established a new doctoral training program in Occupational Health Psychology. This scientist-practitioner model of training within Industrial/Organizational Psychology includes a graduate certificate in Occupational Health Psychology consisting of an OHP proseminar, field methods, lab or field research plus elective courses such as ergonomics and organizational stress. In addition to financial support from the I/O Division, students receive fellowship support from NIOSH to engage in OSH research over summer. Multidisciplinary research themes include the macroergonomics of hazard management and musculoskeletal disorders, gender discrimination and workplace civility, rest break schedules during computer-mediated work, health psychophysiology of work teams, and utility analyses for OSH programs.
