Bio
Pamela Morris is a Professor of Applied Psychology at the NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development and an Affiliated Professor at the NYU School of Global Public Health. An interdisciplinary scholar, Morris conducts research at the intersection of developmental psychology, suicidology, education, and policy in collaboration with economists, policy analysts, implementation scientists, behavioral pediatricians, and prevention scientists. In her two-decades long career largely focused on low-income and marginalized populations, she has secured more than $75M in funding and has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers, book chapters, and policy reports.
Noteworthy current work includes: a) $5M IES-funded partnership with NYCs Department of Education to support their historic expansion of Universal Pre-k and understand the impact of differing approaches to teacher’s professional development on children’s learning and development; and b) a $5.5M NIH-funded randomized trial (an R01 competing continuation) of a tiered primary/secondary parenting intervention within the pediatric primary care platform, with promising effects recently published in Pediatrics on parents’ interactions with their infants.
Morris’ newest research addresses adolescent suicide from a developmentally-informed, population-health perspective. With the prediction of suicide barely better than chance, we focus on the places where adolescents are (schools, primary care) and leverage trusted sources of support (peers, parents, other adults). Our focus is to strengthen bridges, integrating prevention and intervention, within and across health and education systems, drawing from the “Swiss cheese model” for industrial accidents (recognizing that each layer has gaps but their integrated, misaligned layering can support more kids at risk than when each layer exists on its own). A suicide loss survivor (having lost her 17-year-old daughter to suicide in 2019), she brings lived experience to her work on youth suicide prevention.
Complementing her research activity with institutional leadership, Morris oversaw 300 faculty in 11 Departments as Vice Dean and Interim Dean at NYU Steinhardt from 2015-2020, overseeing a rise in annual research expenditures from $27 to $39M under her leadership and the transition of 7,000 students to remote instruction during COVID-19.
A former William T. Grant scholar, Morris served as lead editor of the Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness and a member of the National Academy of Science’s Board on Children, Youth, and Families. She received a bachelor’s degree from Columbia University and a doctorate in Developmental Psychology from Cornell University.
