Event Details
“How do adolescents’ brains process social feedback on their performance and likability?” with Dr. Leehyun Yoon.
Adolescence is a transformative period marked by heightened emotional reactivity and an amplified drive to seek self-understanding, peer acceptance, and social status. These factors make adolescents exceptionally attuned to social feedback, particularly in the realms of performance and likability. Dr. Yoon’s talk unravels the unique ways adolescents process social feedback, showcasing insights from her work and the broader field of developmental affective neuroscience. By shedding light on the intricate interplay between social feedback, emotional responses, and brain development in adolescence, this talk informs how to better understand adolescents’ emotional reactivity and how to nurture healthy emotional and self-development during this critical stage of life.
Lectures are free and open to the public.
