PROF. DR. MARÍA JOSÉ RODRIGO Ph.D. in Psychology at University of Salamanca, Spain and Professor on Developmental Psychology and Education at University of La Laguna, Spain. Her research topic is the evaluation of evidence-based programs to promote positive parenting in families under at-risk circumstances and prevent child maltreatment. Prof. Rodrigo and her team have designed, implemented and evaluated group parenting programs targeted at families referred by the local social services and the primary health services, which are widely spread in Spain, Portugal and Brazil. Dr. Rodrigo is also involved in a second line of research on developmental neuroscience with two main topics: a) the study of the epigenetic, neurological and personality bases of maternal insensitivity to infant signals in mothers who show severe disregard to the basic needs of young children; and b) the study of the neural networks activated in risky decision-making in social contexts in young juvenile offenders and controls.
