Dr. Laurie Graham Dodge earned her Ph.D. in school psychology with cognates in statistics, research, and human development. Since 1987, she has taught at Chapman University, where she is chair of the psychology department. Statistics run in her family. Her father taught statistics at Temple University, and her three children (all of whom are in college) report that they love statistics (to humor her, perhaps).
