Lenny Jason

As a professor of psychology at DePaul University in Chicago and the director of the Center for Community Research, I have published more than 900 articles and 100 book chapters on a range of social and health topics, from the prevention of, and recovery from, substance abuse, to preventive school-based interventions, to post-viral diseases, like long COVID, and chronic fatigue syndrome (also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). Serving on the editorial boards of multiple peer-reviewed psychology journals, my scientific research has received views from more than 150,000 readers on ResearchGate and my work has been cited in over 17,500 articles. I have a regular column in Psychology Today (my latest article had over 200,000 views) and have published scores of blogs, editorials, and over 30 books (my last online book has had over 400,000 page views). Rated as having the second-highest number of publications among 2,902 articles published in the two major community psychology journals (Pokorny et al., 2009), I ranked fourth among 1,927 core faculty members in clinical psychology training programs for having the highest number of peer-reviewed journal articles (Stewart et al., 2007).
