Program/educational outcomes assessment- my expertise includes formative and summative assessments of educational outcomes (learning and teaching) as well as program outcomes (effectiveness in obtaining goals and objectives).
Psychometric properties evaluation- my expertise includes assessment of reliability (interrater and inter consistency reliability) and validity (construct and concurrent validity) in professional screening and assessment tools.
Statistics and methodology -my expertise includes issues related to statistical procedures and research design. My expertise areas are reflected in my publications and presentations and international conferences as well in the ongoing outcomes evaluation that I perform in the OT department. 

Experience includes over ten years of teaching the psychosocial component of the occupational therapy curriculum at York College. I also have over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Occupational Therapist in the area of Mental Health which includes the provision of direct services for adults, organizing and directing a clinical training program for occupational therapy students, and the clinical supervision of occupational therapy practitioners.

Dr. Horowitz received her BA from Stony Brook University, her MS in Occupational Therapy from Columbia University, and her PhD from the Graduate School of Social Service of Fordham University, with a concentration in Gerontology.

Prior to my faculty appointment, I was director of OT services at Lamm Institute for Child Neurology treating neurologically impaired children as an occupational therapist (OT). OT treatment emphasizes learning skills that are impacted by developmental and neurological disorders to enable improved participation in home, school, and social environments. My research investigates differences in learning complex motor skills through the life span in typical and disordered populations. I explore attention as it affects complex task performance from both a developmental and neuropsychological perspective. I teach courses in neuroanatomy, cognitive neuroscience, activity analysis / motor learning , pediatric treatment, and advise research projects. I hold a recently completed PhD in neuropsychology. My dissertation examined attention processes that decline in patients with Alzheimer disease and how these declines effect every day function.
