Lahnna Catalino

Lahnna is a graduate student in Social Psychology, working towards a departmental minor in Quantitative Psychology. Most of the research questions she finds intriguing are linked to the study of well-being. How do the optimally functioning live their lives differently on a daily basis? What resources or practices allow people to deal effectively with life's stressors or maximize life's successes? Lahnna is also interested in the intersection of culture and well-being. How does our culture cultivate or prevent optimal functioning among its members? And what is the architecture of well-being in other cultures (defined regionally, nationally, etc.)? Beyond these questions, Lahnna is interested in the connection between social relationships and well-being, interventions to promote positive emotions, and the use of experience sampling techniques. Lahnna completed her master's degree in General Experimental Psychology at Wake Forest University in 2006.
