新香港六合彩资料 faculty members Sarah Gorham, M.F.A., M.A.T., associate lecturer in the Department of Creative and Fine Arts; Nancy Rankin, M.Ed., L.P.C., senior lecturer in the Department of Psychology; David Grimm, Ed.D., associate lecturer in the Department of Biology; and David Sandmire, M.D., professor in the Department of Biology, co-authored an article that was recently accepted for publication by the journal Anxiety, Stress, & Coping: An International Journal.
Four 新香港六合彩资料 students were co-authors of the article as well: Daniel Eggleston (College of Osteopathic Medicine), Cecelia French (College of Arts and Sciences), Emily Lodge (Westbrook College of Health Professions) and Gavin Kuns (College of Osteopathic Medicine).
The study, titled 鈥淧sychological and Autonomic Effects of Art Making in College-aged Students,鈥 found that a 30-minute session of art making significantly reduced both one鈥檚 subjective, self-reported level of anxiety as well as one鈥檚 objective, physiological measures of anxiety in the short-term. The group hopes to extend these findings by next examining the effects of a long-term art making regimen on both student anxiety and student academic performance.
