He received his B.A. in Psychology magna cum laude from Columbia University in 1980, M.A. in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1982, and Ph.D. in Clinical-Developmental Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1985. Dubow joined Bowling Green State University in 1985 as an Assistant Professor, advancing to Associate Professor from 1990 to 1995, Professor from 1995 to 2017, and Distinguished Research Professor in 2017. He also holds the position of Research Professor at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research since 2014, previously serving as Adjunct Research Scientist from 1998 to 2014. Throughout his career, he has supervised clinical psychology graduate students, directed graduate studies, and contributed to local initiatives including evaluations for Wood County services and the development of the "I Can Do" primary prevention program to foster problem-solving and resilience in elementary school children, implemented in northwest Ohio schools for over 25 years.
Dubow's research examines risk and protective factors in children's adjustment, the development and implementation of school-based intervention programs to enhance coping with stressful and traumatic events, the development of aggression over time and across generations, and the effects of exposure to ethnic-political violence on youth adjustment, often through longitudinal studies in collaboration with international teams. His scholarship, reflected in over 14,000 citations and an h-index of 56 on Google Scholar, includes key publications such as "Childhood and Adolescent Risk and Protective Factors for Violence in Adulthood" (Journal of Criminal Justice, 2016), "Effects of political violence exposure on the family and parenting environment: The Case of Palestinians and Israelis" (Handbook of Political Violence and Children, 2021), and "Political violence exposure and youth aggression in the context of the social ecological systems and family stress models" (International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2025). He served as Editor of the American Psychological Association journal Developmental Psychology starting in 2016, following prior roles as Associate Editor, and has received grants exceeding $1.4 million from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Science Foundation, and others. Dubow has mentored 36 Ph.D. students to prominent positions, earned the Outstanding Contributor to Graduate Education award in 1993, and delivered invited lectures at the University of Cambridge, University of Maryland, and others on violence effects and protective factors.
