  #emotion regulation #self-injurious behaviors #personality strengths #community psychology

Chunghu is particularly interested in developing emotion regulation interventions aimed at preventing self-injurious behavior(SIB) and evaluating their effectiveness and clinical utility. His long-term goal is to extend these interventions beyond clinical settings and implement them universally within community contexts. Outside of academia, Chunghu enjoys spending time with his family. He occasionally runs for exercise, though it's more about survival than enjoyment!

#mood and anxiety disorders #emotion regulation #personality 

Yejin is interested in individuals with anxiety and depression who struggle with regulating their emotional responses. She is particularly drawn to examining underlying cognitive-emotion interactions that undermine self-regulation and how these processes unfold in ecologically valid contexts. More broadly, she is interested in how these processes relate to an individual’s self-concept. In her free time, she enjoys both watching (e.g., tennis, baseball) and playing sports (e.g., yoga, swimming).

#emotion regulation #emotion beliefs #evidence-based intervention #psychological distress

Juri’s academic focus lies in exploring how emotion beliefs shape emotion regulation and psychological well-being. Drawing on her long clinical experience, her work refines models of emotion regulation and develops evidence-based interventions that bridge research and psychotherapy, aiming to reduce psychological distress and extend their impact beyond clinical settings to community contexts.

#digital mental health #AI-augmented therapy #psychological intervention #scalability #accessibility #early detection

Chungnyeong's research lies at the intersection of clinical psychology and emerging technologies, exploring how digital innovations can revolutionize mental healthcare delivery and accessibility. He is focused on developing scalable, evidence-based therapeutic interventions through AI-augmented tools that can detect early warning signs of psychological distress and provide personalized support. Chungnyeong aims to challenge the limitations of current mental health delivery systems by reimagining how technology can extend the reach of psychological interventions while maintaining a human-centered approach.

#emotional regulation #mood disorder #discrimination and social isolation #self-injurious behavior

Junwoo is curious about humans’ ability to regulate emotions and how difficulties in emotional regulation can deteriorate into mood disorders. He is also interested in how discrimination and social isolation within a community may affect mental health on an individual level. Outside of school, Junwoo spends most of his exercise time playing golf—because GOLF IS LIFE.

#emotion regulation #NSSI #suicidality #pain tolerance #distress resilience

Sun Kyung is interested in studying the distinct risk and protective factors of NSSI and suicidality, as well as improving the understanding of the underlying emotion regulation mechanisms in these vulnerable populations. Her goal is to apply these findings to develop effective early and post-intervention strategies that consider individual clinical characteristics.

#emotion regulation #child and adolescent disorders # social determinants of mental health

Daeun is an undergraduate student majoring in Psychology. She is beginning to explore how emotion regulation functions in mental disorders, especially in relation to internalizing and externalizing problems across development. She is also interested in the social determinants of mental health. Guided by this perspective, she hopes to one day design school-based interventions that help foster emotion regulation for all.
