Description:
The RACC Lab conducts research on how different processes of risk and protection support or undermine the identity development, adaptation, and health outcomes of youth and young adults from adversity-exposed, ethnic racial minority, and immigrant backgrounds. Dr. Carlisa Simon and RACC Lab are conducting a new experimental study to understand how cultural processes - like conversations that prepare Black college students for potential encounters with racism discrimination - protect young adults from those lived encounters with discrimination.
Dr. Simon will be recruiting Black undergraduate college students at the University of Maryland, College Park starting this fall 2023.
