Mental Health in the Digital Age Lab
Researching holistic well-being and digital flourishing across the lifespan.
The Mental Health in the Digital Age Lab is a research hub that explores the intersections between mental health, technology and learning across the lifespan. We investigate what it means to flourish in the digital age by researching digital wellness, individual and collective well-being, positive psychology and flourishing, educational psychology and trauma-informed care. Through our action-based research, we are dedicated to promoting holistic wellness to make our communities healthier.
Our Research
Our Lab focuses on educational and psychological research that explores moderators that influence the success of prevention and intervention approaches. Our five core research and outreach areas include digital wellness, individual and collective well-being, positive psychology and flourishing, educational psychology and trauma-informed care.
Knowledge Mobilization through Community Outreach
We are passionate about sharing evidence-based strategies and resources with the community! One of our main impact goals is to promote Community Flourishing through Community Outreach, Action-Based Research, Knowledge Mobilization, and Empowerment Projects (CAKE).
Throughout the year, we host conferences, webinars, workshops and trainings, and post various multimedia resources for community members to have up-to-date, research-supported strategies and practices to use in their personal and professional lives.
