DIVERSITY, EQUITY, ACCESSIBILITY, AND INCLUSION
The Psychology of Sport Injury Laboratory is dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive, collaborative, and equitable learning and research environment. We welcome and embrace researchers of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, and abilities. We meet people where they are at and encourage a growth mindset to take on challenges and learn from them. Below is a list of our specific values that helps to guide our work to address inequalities in science.
Research Specific Values:
We strive to engage in research that is patient-centered, and clinician focused to promote a biopsychosocial approach to patient management. This includes engaging in ongoing projects that focus on examining and improving health outcomes in the following groups:
