How can caregivers help shy children "open up"? Advice from @allieevolpe at @voxdotcom based on conversations with @RahaHassan3 @rjcoplan & @SDLab_UW -a crackerjack Canadian contingent that I somehow snuck into. vox.com/even-better/36…
The 2023 #YouthImpactSurvey is NOW LIVE! Open to all youth (ages 9-18) in #WaterlooRegion all May long! The survey takes 20-30 mins to complete. youthimpactsurvey.ca
WOW!! Dr. Henderson is challenging us to think about shyness not just an individual trait, but as something that unfolds in dyadic relationships! @henderson_ha @YorkUniversity @uofg @OISEUofT @YorkUPsyc @PsychologyUoG @LaMarshCentre @YorkUHealth @APHDatOISE
Dr. Henderson's keynote talk is giving us a new perspective on childhood shyness! Thank you @henderson_ha ⭐
Is shy something you feel or something you are? According to a new study, it could be either. cnn.it/41DL3qZ
Sending our biggest congratulations to DOCTOR McLennon Wilson!!! 👏🏼🤩🎓 Everyone at the SDL is so proud and can’t wait to see what you do next, Dr. McL! @mclennonwilson
