Marie-Hélène Véronneau completed her PhD in psychology at the Université de Montréal (Québec, Canada). She has been working at the CFC as a postdoctoral research scholar since fall 2007. Dr Véronneau’s research has focused on peer relationships and academic adjustment in children and adolescents within a longitudinal, developmental framework. Because her most recent area of interest is prevention research, she is currently studying the impact of the intervention component of Project Alliance 1 and 2 on participants’ academic adjustment.
