Arnold P. Goldstein
Arnold P. Goldstein, Ph.D. (1933-2002), was Professor of Special Education at Syracuse University, Director of the New York State Task Force on Juvenile Gangs, a member of the American Psychological Association Commission on Youth Violence, and a member of the Council of Representatives of the International Society for Research on Aggression. Dr. Goldstein developed three influential approaches to prosocial skills training: skillstreaming, aggression replacement training, and the Prepare Curriculum. Reflecting his role as Director of the Syracuse University Center for Research on Aggression, much of his research and teaching centered on helping youngsters replace antisocial, aggressive behaviors with constructive, alternative means of seeking life satisfaction and effectiveness.
3,500+ Collection
The Institute is home to the Arnold P. Goldstein Memorial Library featuring more than 3,500 specialty titles from the personal collection of the internationally recognized expert on non-violent conflict resolution and author of more than 50 books including the Skillstreaming series. The library also holds additional related donations and dissertations (see below for more details).
The library is open to the public for research and meetings.
In Memory
"Your shoe still leaves deep footprints, footprints that say by your death the world has had less love, less laughter, bridges unbuilt, hurts unsoothed, less joy, less humanity. Such loss is our lesson and your legacy."
- Author Arnold P. Goldstiein
The Shoes of Maidanek, 1992
