from Utah Psychological Association Hosted by Utah Psychological Association
Welcome to the Utah Psychological Association podcast. In today's episode, we're delighted to feature Jisoo Park, a promising Counseling Psychology graduate student at the University of Utah and recipient of the UPA student scholarship. Jisoo sits down with Cat Sales, our UPA Student Representative, to discuss her research on the impact of microaggressions on students of color. Jisoo's work explores how microaggressions and bias incidents within university environments can affect the mental health of students of color, even when they're not directly targeted. This study sheds light on the vicarious effects of a negative campus climate and its broader implications for student wellbeing. During their conversation, Jisoo and Cat delve into the critical role universities play in supporting students of color who may be struggling with psychological wellbeing and loneliness. They discuss potential strategies and interventions that institutions can implement to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all students. Join us for this thought-provoking discussion on a topic that's crucial for fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion in higher education. Whether you're a student, educator, mental health professional, or simply interested in promoting positive change, this episode offers valuable insights into an important area of psychological research.
