How Students Became My Colleagues Allen W. Gottfried, Director Fullerton Longitudinal Study

Mentor A wise guild A wise and trusted counselor or teacher. Guide, role model, teacher, sponsor, support, nurture, develop, challenge, etc.

Philosophy and Approach Viewed each student as a potential colleague. Intelligent, intrinsically motivated (curiosity, persistence, and taking on challenging tasks), and available to conduct research. Desire to pursue Ph.D. – have to taste it. Instill and develop students’ passion for research. Students who are willing to say yes and over-extend. Students who realize that if you don’t ask or try, the answer is NO!

Education is when teacher and students learn together. Not only what I can teach them but also what I can learn from them. How would the research process benefit us. Partnership - I was willing to engage in a collaborative process in which there was no division between teacher and student. If students came up with an idea or willing to pursue an interesting issue or question, I was willing to let students take the lead, including senior authorship on papers and publications. Thus, my students and I made an investment by constructing a long-term prospective study known as the “Fullerton Longitudinal Study.”
