Science Cafe: "Factors that Impact the Physiological and Psychological Functioning of College Students" In-Person
Science Cafe presents: "Factors that Impact the Physiological and Psychological Functioning of College Students" presented by Dr. Lourdes Dale and Audrey Dana from UF Health Department of Psychiatry. College students are faced with a myriad of information coming from multiple sources which can be difficult to navigate and require effective responses from their autonomic nervous system to help them function well academically, socially, and psychologically. This discussion will highlight the impact that multiple risk factors such as maltreatment history, stress, violent videogame play, and executive functioning difficulties, and protective factors, such as family environment, psychological wellbeing, exercise, and yoga, may have on a college student’s ability to effectively manage their day to day interactions.
The goal of the Science Café is to encourage dialogue between scientists and the public, strengthening science literacy and illustrating the impact of science on the world around us.
Organized by the Psychology Department in partnership with the Thomas G. Carpenter Library.
