Maggie Sibley

Dr Sibley's research addresses the need to develop and disseminate age-appropriate and feasible psychosocial interventions for adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). She and her colleagues currently conduct two federally-funded clinical trials that evaluate new models of behavioral treatment delivery for these youth. In addition, Dr Sibley has researched and published several papers on improving the diagnostic assessment of ADHD in children, adolescents, and adults. Some of her work also addresses the adolescent and young adult outcomes of children diagnosed with ADHD who were followed longitudinally into adulthood. Dr Sibley directs the Summer Treatment Program- Adolescent and the Supporting Teens' Academic Needs Daily (STAND program) at the Florida International University (FIU) Center for Children and Families. Dr Sibley is a native of Miami who received her undergraduate education at Wake Forest University and completed a Master's Degree in Psychological Sciences from James Madison University.
