The first week of May, the PTG lab ventured to Chicago, Illinois to present their research at this years 88th Annual Meeting – Midwestern Psychological Association (MPA). Whitney Dominick, Aundreah Walenski, and Shelby Seyburn presented their posters Strength versus Compassion: Cultural Disparities in Personal Growth (Stress, Health, and Psychopathology: Clinical Psychology Posters Division), The influence of Experiencing Multiple Stressful Events on Posttraumatic Growth (Psi Chi Posters VII Division), and Social Support as a Predictor of Posttraumatic Growth in Adolescents (Ostracism and Stereotypes: Social Psychology Division).
The MPA conference promotes the advancement of the psychological sciences. The PTG lab members enriched their knowledge of psychology by attending poster sessions, and symposia’s addressing diverse psychological research topics. In addition, they were able to speak with other researchers and network with professionals. This experience was a great start in preparation for upcoming conferences.
