THE HEALTH AND HUMAN PERFORMANCE LAB

The lab, run by Dr. David Creswell at Carnegie Mellon University, explores diverse topics in social and health psychology. Our work lies at the interface between health psychology, social psychology, clinical psychology, and health neuroscience. We study stress and coping with a focus on stress management strategies (e.g., self-affirmation, cognitive reappraisal, social connection) and interventions (e.g., mindfulness meditation), for understanding stress resilience processes.
