Charles van der Haegen"Welcome to the Website
I began work on the Reflective Judgment Model with my colleague Karen Strohm Kitchener when we were doctoral students at the University of Minnesota in the 1970s under the guidance of Professors Clyde Parker, James R. Rest, and Mark L. Davison. Since that time, colleagues at many other universities have joined this effort; collectively, this group of scholars and educators has greatly enriched our understanding of the development of epistemic assumptions and how young adults and adults learn to make truly reflective judgments. In 1994, we published Developing Reflective Judgment: Understanding and Promoting Intellectual Growth and Critical Thinking in Adolescents and Adults (Jossey-Bass, Inc.). Many of the ideas included here were introduced in that volume; many are discussed there in greater detail.
Two major observations have guided our work over the years: 1) individuals' understanding of the nature, limits, and certainty of knowing (their epistemic assumptions) affects how they defend their judgments; and 2) epistemic assumptions change over time in a developmentally related fashion. These observations have guided and motivated us to more fully describe, better assess, and carefully research the development of reflective judgment.
This website was initially designed with the considerable assistance of former doctoral students at the University of Michigan, Marie Kendall Brown and Nathan K. Lindsay; without their encouragement, thoughtful questions, and perseverance, this task would not have been accomplished. More recently, Woo-jeong Shim has assisted with its refinement. Thank you, Nathan, Marie and Woo-jeong!
