Digital Citizenship, Health, and Wellness
Oct 25 \ 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. \ Lulu Chow Wang Campus Center, Room 413, Wellesley College
Part of the Wellesley Centers for Women Lunchtime Seminar Series
The Youth, Media & Wellbeing Research Lab at WCW will present brief updates of work in progress from two research projects -- a 2016 post-election survey on media and identity and a 2017-18 study on early adolescent social media use and wellbeing. Linda Charmaraman, Ph.D., director of the research lab, and her research assistants will share results from the post-election survey, which had over 1,500 participants. They will discuss findings related to the health, wellbeing, and pertinent social issues of the voter and nonvoter participants as well as observations of both online harassment and social support following the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The team will also discuss how much a sample of almost 700 future voters (middle school youth) care about politics and community building.
