psychology majors are encouraged to participate in
research opportunities, as a directed independent study
or in a team research environment with a faculty member.
Students have presented their findings at conferences
and received grants from competitive organizations such
as the South Carolina Independent Colleges and
Universities.
Recent student and class research topics have included:
- Prevalence of eating disorders and
negative body image in college-age women
- Children's
accuracy in line-up identification after a time delay
- The relationship between sex and
visual-spatial ability
- The relationship between
depression and locus of control in
college students
- Considering the sex of the alleged perpetrators of child sexual abuse: Are there inequities in convictions and sentencing?
