Mental Health Law and Policy Institute |
The Director of the Institute is Ronald Roesch, a professor in the Department of Psychology at Simon Fraser University. Various members of the MHLPI will be represented, student opportunities are situated in the broad domain of individuals with (and without) serious mental illness who are in some way involved in the criminal justice system. Our booth provided concrete examples of projects and studies and described research opportunities with Dr. Kevin Douglas, Dr. Stephen Hart, and Dr. Tonia Nicholls. |
Psychological Foundations Lab |
Presented studies that we are currently running at the lab and invited students to find out which hemisphere is dominant for language processing. |
Social Cognition and Emotion Lab |
Presented posters of past research, provided application forms and application information, mingled with students, and shared our experiences as research assistants. |
Supporting Relationships and Wellbeing Lab |
Our research aims to understand how social relationships can foster better psychological and physiological wellbeing. Given the crucial role of intimate relationships in protecting people against psychological and physical health problems, our research aims to determine when and for whom relationships foster greater wellbeing. While past research suggests that coupled people experience greater wellbeing compared to single people, relationships can also be a source of hurt and conflict, which single people can avoid. We also conduct research which aims to understand factors that maximize single peoples' wellbeing. |
Vision Lab |
Featured research on how people pay attention to the visual world. |
