Clinical child psychologist. She earned a PhD in clinical psychology from the University of Pittsburgh and specialized in child psychology during her internship at the Pittsburgh Child Guidance Center. She spent a year in Denver as a counselor in schools and then spent four years at the University of Washington, where she saw many children in play therapy, and it was here that her interest in play developed. He developed the Affect in Play Scale to measure play in a standardized way, now considered a gold standard in the field of clinical psychology. Russ made this scale to measure play in a standardized way by examining imagination and the expression of emotional experience in play, something that had never yet been done.
