how can we feel motivated in times of uncertainty like nowadays?
I’ve changed my plans and pathways several times and I’m still confused and lost about what to do

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

great opportunity!!!

[The Trauma Group @TheTraumaGroup]

Do you have any experience with dyadic analysis? Do you feel like working on a project investigating mothers and Emotion Regulation? Then that is the right opportunity for you!
If you are interested in this position, please email the PI, Dr. Talmon your CV and personal letter.

It’s weird to realize that due to my citizenship and research interests it will be VERY HARD to be accepted into a graduate program abroad… perhaps it’s time to think about other possibilities

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

just submitted another manuscript, fingers crossed 🤞🏻

@AyushiSaha_ yes… that’s a bummer

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

now I’m thinking about exploring other institutions outside the US, it sounds too risky to invest and apply right now…..

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@hasan_sharifian @PsySciAcc @ABRIR_Psy thank you!

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

how am I supposed to have tons of research experience before grad application cycle, if the majority of research labs don’t recruit international applicants ????

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@AyushiSaha_ unfortunately….

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@onahcaleb1 I’ve been a volunteer for a while, but that seems to not be enough…

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@AbhigyanSahoo12 yes, it can be very frustrating… the situation is very similar in Brazil!! even general research experience is not very encouraged here

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@AbhigyanSahoo12 hmm, I haven’t thought of that, thank you!!

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

if I don’t get into any graduate programs abroad, maybe I should try Master programs in Brazil (??) — not sure yet

[Brenda Leal @Brenda_SLeal]

@MahimaPsych exactly! it’s an endless challenge….

[CREAR Lab @LabCREAR]

New pub alert! 🎊 Sydni, Angela & Dr. Medrano found that family stressors (e.g., loss, divorce) were linked to higher anxiety/stress, while material needs were not. Resilience & family cohesion helped buffer these effects.
