M.A. Student
| Degrees: | B.A. Psychology (McGill) |
Charlotte is a first-year Master’s student in Rogers Child Mental Health Labs. Her research will focus on how positive teacher-student relationships play a role in fostering resilience among students with ADHD. Charlotte is particularly interested in two types of resilience: socio-emotional resilience, which involves children’s ability to navigate challenges and develop social competence despite stressors, and academic resilience, which relates to overcoming setbacks in educational contexts. She also aims to explore how these relationships influence the degree of school absenteeism among this population, and in turn how absenteeism varies as a function of resilience. Currently, Charlotte is preparing for data collection for the CSAP Pilot study with Carolynn Hare and Snimer Nagi. A fun fact about Charlotte is that she has planted over 300,000 trees as part of her summer job as a tree planter during last few years.
