De specialisatie Orthopedagogiek biedt op onderzoek gebaseerd inzicht in de aard, ernst en oorzaken van problemen van kinderen en jongeren èn in effectieve behandelingen of programma’s. Onderzoek naar de oorzaken van en mogelijkheden om problematische opvoedingsituaties te beïnvloeden gaat uit van een meervoudig risicomodel. De ontwikkeling van kinderen is de uitkomst van de interactie tussen het kind en zijn omgeving. Het is belangrijk om de risico- en beschermende factoren in het kind èn zijn omgeving (gezin, school, leeftijdgenoten) in kaart te brengen evenals de manieren waarop ze elkaar kunnen beïnvloeden.
