Youth, Media & Wellbeing Research Lab
星空无限
Our name sums it up. We study a breadth of issues related to youth, the media in which they are immersed, and implications for wellbeing.
We strive to understand how adolescents identify and express themselves as well as the ways that practitioners and families can promote young people鈥檚 sense of self and agency. We are particularly interested in girls and underrepresented young people whose lives may not be extensively researched or understood.
This research has been made possible with the support of the National Institutes for Health, Children and Screens: Institute Digital Media & Child Development, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the 星空无限, among others.
In January, Senior Research Scientist Linda Charmaraman, Ph.D., spoke on an American Psychological Association-sponsored panel at CES, the world鈥檚 largest tech event. The topic was 鈥淵outh Mental Health: Helping a Generation Thrive in a Digital World.鈥
