About

Dr. Edward (Ward) B. Davis is a Professor of Psychology at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois and the Director of Clinical Training in the Wheaton Doctoral Psychology Programs.

Most of Dr. Davis’s publications, presentations, and research grants have focused on these areas, including the recently published Handbook of Positive Psychology, Religion, and Spirituality. Dr. Davis also is a licensed clinical psychologist and serves on the Editorial Board of two journals: Psychology of Religion and Spirituality (PRS, Associate Editor) and Journal of Psychology and Theology (JPT, Editorial Board).
