Susan S. Hendrick is an American psychologist and Horn Professor of Psychology at Texas Tech University.[1][2] Along with her husband, Clyde Hendrick, she is known for developing the Love Attitudes Scale,[3][4][5] an instrument commonly used in romantic love research.[6][7]
Career
[edit]Hendrick received her PhD from Kent State University in 1978.[8]
Later, in Miami, Florida, she was in private practice, and taught at University of Miami.[8][2]
She began working at Texas Tech University in 1984, where she taught both graduate and undergraduate courses, including a course on close relationships—a field she and her husband Clyde Hendrick helped develop.[2]
In 1986, together with Clyde, she developed the Love Attitudes Scale (LAS).[3][4][9] Research using the LAS is an extension of the color wheel theory of love invented by John Alan Lee.[9][10] The LAS has since been translated into a dozen languages.[4] The Hendricks were once called "the love doctors" in a Texas Tech Valentine's Day advice column.[11]
Hendrick was an associate editor of the Journal of Social and Clinical Psychology, and served on the editorial boards of Journal of Marriage and the Family and Contemporary Psychology.[8]
In 2005, she was named a Horn Professor by Texas Tech, the highest honor bestowed by the university upon a faculty member.[1]
