Media Use, Civic Engagement, and Health: Highlights from New Research

Title: Media Use, Civic Engagement, and Health: Highlights from New Research
Presenter: Linda Charmaraman, Ph.D. and Research Team
Location: Lulu Chow Wang Campus Center, Room 413, Wellesley College

WCW Research Scientist Linda Charmaraman, Ph.D. will be joined by WCW Research Associates and Wellesley College student assistants to offer an overview of recent and emerging findings from the Media & Identity Project -- a series of ongoing online survey studies from 2013 through 2017, which to date have collected data from almost 5000 individuals aged 12-80+ living in the U.S. and over 26 countries. Each member of the research team will provide brief snapshots of works-in-progress or recent papers, including topics about Asian American social media use, gender and sexual minority stereotypes in the media, online civic engagement and the election process, and understanding social contexts of unhealthy adolescent behaviors.

This program is part of the Lunchtime Seminar Series hosted by the Wellesley Centers for Women (WCW) at Wellesley College. Lunchtime Seminars are free and open to the public. Most programs are held Thursdays, 12:30-1:30 p.m. at the Centers’ Cheever House location (828 Washington St, Wellesley), and parking is available in the on-site parking lot. Bring your lunch; WCW will provide tea and coffee. For accessibility questions, contact Disability Services at Wellesley College ([email protected] or call 781.283.2434).
