The 2019 Science, the Arts and Possibilities in Perception (SciAPP) workshop brought together perception scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs and artists with the goal of expanding the experience of perception. The workshop included talks from experts in neuroscience, psychology, physics, math, engineering, science communication, business and art and included music performances and art shows.
Recently, we asked one of our Spring Psychology students to tell us about her experience. We are proud to highlight Erica Olson and her experience as an intern for The Crossroads, Inc., a residential substance abuse treatment home for men, women, and Veterans across the valley.
Research in Action
Researchers at the Department of Psychology and the ASU REACH Institute have developed several evidence-based programs that focus on improving the lives of children and families. These programs are featured below.
The Resilient Parenting for Bereaved Families (RPBF) Program is a 10 meeting group program designed to promote resilience of bereaved parents and their children following the death of a parent. The program does this by teaching practical tools for parents in the context of a warm and supportive group environment. Tools taught in the program help build what we call the Five Building Blocks of Resilient Parenting.
The New Beginnings Program for Divorcing and Separating Families (NBP) is a 10-session program designed to promote effective parenting following family separation or divorce. The program teaches skills that help parents create positive and warm relationships, use open communication with children, employ effective discipline, and keep children out of the middle of conflict between the parents.
