Dr. Delaney Glass: The Sawa Project
A talk by Dr. Delaney Glass, hosted by the Faculty of Arts and Science's Liberal Studies program
This talk will examine Dr. Glass’ ongoing SAWA project which aims to understand relationships between daily stress and social interactions, early life experiences, heart rate variability, and health among Arab newcomer and second-generation adolescents ages 9-16. The talk will cover the goals and rationale for the project, reflections on having a youth research advisory board, and ongoing considerations for community engaged, mixed-methods research.
