Be CALM for Early College High Schools

Students in advanced academic programming, such as that provided in Early College High Schools (ECHSs), may experience stress that interferes with their academic success. Although ECHSs provide many supports to students, there is a need for additional programming to support students' social-emotional development and stress resilience. This study involves further developing, refining, implementing, and testing a multi-tiered adaptation of Be CALM (Cool, Attentive, Logical, and Mature), a mindfulness-based SEL program that aims to enhance staff and student wellbeing and SEL competencies. Mindfulness is a practice of Pressing the Pause on purpose and Tuning In to the present moment with a curious and kind attitude that has been shown to benefit social and emotional wellbeing in students. We expect that knowledge gained from this study will be used to advance understanding of how mindfulness may be helpful to ECHS students, teachers, and counselors.

Finishing Sentences

This project aims to test the cognitive mechanisms involved in language production by healthy adults, specifically comparing the effects of pronoun priming on the rate of production of binary pronouns (he/she) and nonbinary pronouns (they). Pronoun priming has been demonstrated to be associated with a higher rate of pronoun production than name priming for binary pronouns, and we hypothesize that this difference would also occur with nonbinary pronouns.
