He was chair of the Psychology Department for six years and directed the Honors Program for eight years. He was cofounder of the DaVinci Society at Wagner College. He led five summer group “City as Text” (Venice) visits for honors students. He is the founder of two campus initiatives (the Men’s Center for Research and the self-designed major, with Richard Guarasci). He was for one year faculty representative to the Board of Trustees (1995-96). He has developed and taught twenty-three different courses at the College, including two experimental courses in psychology, since arriving in 1994.
He is a member of the executive boards of two professional organizations and has served on the editorial boards of five peer-reviewed journals. He has been general editor of three peer-reviewed journals and was for three years Assistant Editor for American Imago (founded by Sigmund Freud and Hans Sachs). He has been a solicited reviewer for books published by McGill-Queens University Press, Rowman & Littlefield and the University of Toronto Press. He has been an external reviewer for doctoral dissertations presented to Flinders University and the University of Ottawa. He is a member of six professional organizations and a panel member for the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. He has contributed numerous occasional pieces to alumni/ae magazines and organization newsletters. He was among the first responders to the AIDS crisis as a counselor at the Lesbian and Gay Center in New York City (1986-88).
Download CVI identify myself with the existential-phenomenological and humanistic (APA Division 32) movement in psychology. We may profitably study human experience in relation to the workings of the brain and nervous system, behavior, and unconscious mental life (psychoanalysis), but there is always something more about experience that none of these approaches can grasp. That is the uniquely human dimension, which we cannot ignore when we attempt to understand our ourselves. Even though we are similar to animals in many ways, there are aspects of human life that in principle and for philosophical reasons cannot be reduced to the materialistic concepts of genetics, physiology, instincts, or the AI (information processing) model. These aspects include the spiritual element in human life. In all my classes I stress the historical background of the traditional questions raised by psychologists, including issues related to the meaning of mind and emotional health. In upper level courses I emphasize the importance of each student's independent position on topics under discussion. In my classes students are introduced to the full range of theoretical positions, schools of thought, and outlooks on human experience so that they can eventually make intelligent choices among points of view that best explain what puzzles psychologists and causes us to continue our study and research. The enduring themes of psychology--consciousness, sensation and perception, emotion, motivation, memory, learning, personality, development, psych0metrics, psychopathology and psychotherapy--are all treated in the traditional way but with an emphasis on engaging the student as an actively experiencing psychologist, taking part in what since William James (1895) has been called psychologizing. They not only read about psychology but engage in psychological research of a very personal kind as well as participating in ongoing laboratory research on campus. Thus they learn both quantitative and qualitative methods of psychological investigation.

In 2014, Professor Groth began a project of donating part of his scholarly library to Horrmann Library's holdings. The "Groth Collection" now numbers about 1,200 books, all of which are available for the use of students, colleagues and individuals from the local community who use the College library. A large number are in a specially dedicated area in the main reading room of the library and the rest are spread through the rest of the library's holdings. The "Groth Collection" will be supplemented in the coming years. In addition, a large series of reprints of scholarly papers not available online is being catalogued and will soon be available for the use of scholars. These will be housed in the Markham Library Room on the lower level of Horrmann Library. Here is a link to the contents of the collection: http://wagc-mt.iii.com/iii/encore/search/C__Sb%3Agroth__Orightresult__U?lang=eng&suite=cobalt
