Steve DeVore is the founder of SyberVision.  Steve joined forces with the late Dr. Karl Pribram, founder of the science of neuropsychology and the director the Stanford University Neuropsychology Research Laboratory, to research the brain and psychological processes behind how we learn from role models — how we acquire and develop skills, attitudes and behaviors from those models.

Steve spent 8 years at Stanford with Dr. Pribram in a research project sponsored by SyberVision, the Stanford School of Education, Stanford School of Athletics and the Stanford School of Medicine. He researched and developed the learning theory that resulted in 64 SyberVision personal achievement programs in health, family relations, leadership, goal achievement, athletic performance and foreign language mastery.

These programs have sold millions of copies and have even been been used, in customized form,  by the U.S. Army (psychological operations) , the Central Intelligence Agency/U.S. State Department (foreign language learning), U.S. Air Force (training of stealth fighter pilots), and the United States Olympic Committee in elite athlete training.

Steve, an alumnus of the BYU Graduate School of Organizational Communications became aware of research Dr. Garth Fisher was doing on weight control and the LDS "Word of Wisdom" at the BYU Human Performance Laboratory. Steve & Dr. Fisher joined forces to create "The Neuropsychology of Weight Control" program. This program sold over 1.3 3 million copies world-wide at generated over $272 million in sales (based on the value of the 2017 dollar).

Steve and Dr. Fisher then studied the 1.3 million users of the initial weight control program, learned the strategies of the most successful of those users and developed, as a result,  "The New Neuropsychology of Weight Control."

Steve and his wife Kathy live in Orem, Utah. They have 7 grown children and 22 grandchildren.
