LeRoy
A. Stone, Ph.D., (Fellow) ACAPP, Forensic
Clinical Psychologist
Since 1969, Dr. Stone has maintained a private practice that has been exclusively limited to forensic clinical psychology. The earning/granting of his ABPP Specialty Diplomate in Forensic Psychology occurred in 1987. He is currently psychologist-licensed in only one state, West Virginia (#167); at the ended of 2003, after being licensed in Maryland (#934) for 27 years, he declined to renew due to his plans to reduce the extent of his psychology practice. Several years ago he was granted his Certificate of Professional Qualification in Psychology (#13) by the Association of State & Provincial Psychology Boards. He has held academic rank [up to and including being a tenured Full Professor] in a number of universities; and until recently, he was a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Behavioral Medicine and Psychiatry in West Virginia University's School of Medicine. Dr. Stone's most major subspecialties can be regarded as essentially being limited to two areas of activity: (1) a broad spectrum clinical psychology assessment of accused individuals involved in the criminal justice system and (2) psychological evaluations of individuals with respect to consideration of employment in positions of trust; i.e., for purposes of 'personnel security assessment.' [Note - with respect to this last matter, Dr. Stone was employed for the first 13 years as a very senior (i.e., GGD Grade 15, which is equivalent to an army 'full' colonel rank) clinical psychologist and the last 11 years as the Chief Research Psychologist in one of our Country's largest intelligence agencies.] In December of 2002, Dr. Stone somewhat changed his professional activity priorities. He has de-emphasized his forensic psychology involvement with criminal justice cases and is presently devoting much of his attention to further research development and commercial sales of his psychological assessment instruments, the Personnel Security Standards Psychological Questionnaire (i.e., the PSSPQ) and the Probity/Honesty Inventory (PHI). Also, he has become increasingly involved in the development of an instrument that will greatly facilitate job analyses with attention to security level consideration matters. Due to the increased world-wide interest in interrogation techniques, Dr. Stone has renewed his past interest in this area by again conducting research regarding the use of multi-tasking overload to significantly reduce the ability to effectively lie when being systematically interrograted. This research effort is described in web pages whose address is: http://www.home.earthlink.net/~lastone2/interrogationconsultant.html.

All of the subject titles (listed on the left side of this page) are direct links to web pages that greatly expand on the titled subjects. At the present time, Dr. Stone's most major activities and interests focus on the Personnel Security Standards Psychological Questionnaire (PSSPQ), which is a psychological assessment instrument that produces information that accurately predicts whether an individual will be successful or not in eventually being granted a high-level security clearance, if that individual is to be processed for same by the Federal Government. In prior years, approximately 85% of his forensic psychology efforts were directed towards psychological assessment of persons accused of criminal behaviors. Another 10% involved assessment of persons who were being regarded by their U.S. Governmental agency or department as being some type of 'problem applicant for employment' or 'problem employee' and, as such, were facing detrimental personnel/security action. The remaining 5% involved assessment of applicants for various types of employment in "positions of trust." Since December of 2002, Dr. Stone has Not counted in the above presented percentage figures is Dr.
Stone's ongoing participation in conducting behavioral science
research, in recent years mainly focused upon the forensic
psychology area of study of traitorous behavior (i.e., those
committing espionage, spies). In this regard, he has a
number of research publications. It is widely believed that
his 'spy database' is one of the most complete and it is fully
quantified, thus allowing for complex statistical manipulation and
analyses. At last count, Dr. Stone has produced well over
225 articles, all in refereed behavioral science journals, as well
as several books. This page is copyrighted, July 2000,
