In her presentation, Professor Masten will highlight what decades of research has revealed about resilience in children and families, how emerging observations on resilience during the pandemic align with the earlier findings, and reflect on the implications of what we have learned for efforts to foster resilience in children. She will explain why she favors defining resilience as the capacity of a system\u2014whether it is a child, a family, or a community\u2014to adapt successfully to challenges that threaten the function, survival, or development of the system. Nurturing and sustaining resilience in children depends on many systems beyond the individual capacities of the child: caregiving, family, education, and multiple community systems, as well as policies that support the systems that support children. Dr. Masten will describe the \u201cshort list\u201d of common resilience factors documented by global studies, representing the \u201cordinary magic\u201d of basic but powerful adaptive systems that operate to prepare for, cope with, and recover from adversity. She will discuss the implications of resilience science for understanding and addressing the risks posed by COVID-19 to child development.<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Psych Club Speaker<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3137\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/news-events\/psych-club-speaker-spring-2022-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2022\/03\/Psych-Club-Speaker-Spring-2022-2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1728,2304\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2022\/03\/Psych-Club-Speaker-Spring-2022-2-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"alignright wp-image-3137 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2022\/03\/Psych-Club-Speaker-Spring-2022-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1728\" height=\"2304\" \/><\/p>\n<p><i><b><\/b><\/i>Speaker: Eric J.

One reason, we find, is because people consistently underestimate the positive consequences of reaching out and connecting with others. \u00a0From talking to strangers to expressing compliments to revealing personal secrets to engaging in constructive confrontations, our experiments reveal a systematic bias to underestimate how positively these actions will make others feels. \u00a0Misunderstanding the positive consequences of social engagement may leave people being less social than would be optimal for both their own, and others, wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>Bio: Nicholas Epley\u00a0is the John Templeton Keller Professor of Behavior Science and Director of the Center for Decision Research at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Dozens more receive the Carnegie Medal for heroism for rescuing strangers from danger. The question is: why? What drives people to take risks and make sacrifices to help strangers? Our work includes behavioral and brain imaging research aimed at understanding the roots of extraordinary altruism. Results of our behavioral and brain imaging research suggest that extraordinary altruists possess neural and cognitive characteristics that may predispose them to high levels of care and compassion. In terms of their brain structure and function, they look the opposite of highly callous individuals (such as psychopaths). They also show unusually strong connections between brain areas that support parental care. These variations may increase altruists\u2019 capacity for empathic responding and bias them toward protective responses to others\u2019 distress. Together, these results suggest that extraordinary altruism may result from variations in established neural and cognitive phenomena that support social and emotional responsiveness. They also suggest that human altruism may be subserved by ancient neural systems that support parental care.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bio<strong>:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Abigail Marsh is Associate Professor of Psychology, Neuroscience, and Cognitive Science at Georgetown.\u00a0 She received her Ph.D. from Harvard University and conducted post-doctoral research at the National Institute of Mental Health.\u00a0Her research is aimed at answering the questions: How do we understand what others think and feel?

At the time this piece was created, I was interested in exploring the psychological concepts of nature versus nurture. In the psychology class I was taking at the time, these concepts were defined separately. Yet, the more I thought about what nature and nurture mean, I realized that they are inherently intertwined. In addition, I realized that dividing them into two separate concepts may inhibit our ability to empathize. Often, we view others behavior as their nature, while we view our own behavior as stemming from our nurture. Yet, these two concepts should never be thought of as two separate entities. Without our inherent nature, we would not be able to nurture those around us or learn from experience and vice versa. This message is what I hope to express through my piece. In optical illusions, it is almost impossible to view both parts (i.e. the woman and the tree) simultaneously, but seeing one without seeing the other inhibits the ability of an individual to absorb the entire picture.<\/p>\n<h5>Second Place<\/h5>\n<p>Artist:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Elissa Krause (Johnston, IA)<br \/>\nMajor(s): \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Studio Art and French, 2020<br \/>\nTitle: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <em>Schema<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2349\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/ElissaKrause_Schema-236x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"236\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Honorable Mention\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Artist:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Lesly Ramos (Chicago, IL)<br \/>\nMajor(s): \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Studio Art and Latin American Studies, 2020<br \/>\nTitle: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <em>Estereotipos del Cerebro<\/em> (<em>Stereotypes of the Brain<\/em>)<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 266px;\" width=\"654\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2352\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/news-events\/rightbrain\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/Rightbrain.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2410,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS REBEL T5i&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1524789974&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;29&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Rightbrain\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/Rightbrain-964x1024.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2352\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/Rightbrain-282x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"282\" height=\"300\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2351\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/Leftbrain-272x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"272\" height=\"300\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2350\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/08\/interwind-276x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"276\" height=\"300\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2>2017-2018<\/h2>\n<p>Psi Chi Speaker<br \/>\nTuesday, February 20, 2017<br \/>\n5:30 P.M., Buntrock 142<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2299\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/news-events\/uofmps_poster\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/02\/UofMPS_Poster.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1811,2343\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"UofMPS_Poster\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/02\/UofMPS_Poster-791x1024.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2299\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/files\/2018\/02\/UofMPS_Poster-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h4>Olaf W. and Juta R.

In this talk, I will describe a series of studies showing that: (1) how people want to feel differs from how they actually feel, (2) cultural factors shape how people want to feel even more than how they actually feel, and (3) these cultural differences in ideal affect have important implications for what people do, how they define health and well-being, and even how they perceive and treat other people. Finally, I will discuss how these cultural differences in ideal affect may play themselves out in clinics, corporations, and classrooms in multicultural societies like the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Bio:\u00a0Jeanne L.\u00a0Tsai\u00a0is currently\u00a0professor of psychology in the Department of Psychology at Stanford University, and Director of the Stanford Culture and Emotion Lab. She is broadly interested in the cultural shaping of emotion and its implications for health, decision-making, and person perception. Her work is currently funded by the National Science Foundation and has been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute on Aging, and the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression. She is fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, the American Psychological Association Division 8, the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, and the Society for Experimental Social Psychology. At Stanford, she has received the Dean\u2019s Award for Distinguished Teaching and the Asian American Activities Center Faculty Award.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .site-grid__col -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .site-grid, .site-grid__wrapper -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .site-section__content -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!--.site-section__inner -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .site-section -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n<!-- end-migrated-from-panel-builder --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2721,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2113","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2721"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2113"}],"version-history":[{"count":26,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2113\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3360,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2113\/revisions\/3360"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/psych\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
