Time to act
Research on university student well-being often fails to differentiate between graduate and undergraduate students or overlooks graduate students entirely. The different characteristics of graduate (vs. undergraduate) students may contribute to unique mental health needs in this population; hence research is needed to specifically address their psychological functioning. Thus, the goals of the present study were to report on: (1) the mental healt…
Piloting the Virtual PLAYshop Program
The PLAYshop program is a parent-focused physical literacy intervention for early childhood. This single-group mixed-methods pilot study aimed to explore the feasibility of virtually delivering and assessing the PLAYshop program. The virtual PLAYshop program included a virtual workshop, resources/basic equipment, and two booster emails (3-week and 6-week follow-up). Data on 34 preschool-aged children (3-5 years) and their parents from Edmonton an…
A Pragmatic Feasibility Trial Examining the Effect of Job Embedded Professional Development on Teachers’ Capacity to Provide Physical Literacy Enriched Physical Education in Elementary Schools
A gap in physical literacy (PL) oriented professional development (PD) for generalist teachers exists and thus their capacity to develop PL and maximize student health is potentially limited. We explored the feasibility of a novel job-embedded professional development (JEPD) program (10 weeks) and its impact on teachers' capacity to deliver PL-enriched physical education (PE) and student PL. A pragmatic feasibility trial with mixed methods includ…
Individual differences in learning the affective value of others under minimal conditions
This paper provides the first demonstration that people can learn about the positive and negative value of other people (e.g., neutral faces) under minimal learning conditions, with stable individual differences in this learning. In four studies, participants viewed neutral faces paired with sentences describing positive, negative or neutral behaviors on either two (Study 1) or four (Studies 2, 3, and 4) occasions. Participants were later asked t…

A functional MRI study of human amygdala responses to facial expressions of fear versus anger
A functional MRI study of human amygdala responses to facial expressions of fear versus anger
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the human brain was used to compare changes in amygdala activity associated with viewing facial expressions of fear and anger. Pictures of human faces bearing expressions of fear or anger, as well as faces with neutral expressions, were presented to 8 healthy participants. The blood oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) fMRI signal within the dorsal amygdala was significantly greater to Fear versus Anger, i…
