Lauren Bernal recently graduated from the bachelor of science program in psychology at The University of Texas at Dallas. During her academic career at UT Dallas, she has research assisted Dr. Walter J. Dowling’s Music Perception & Cognition Lab as well as Dr. Karen Prager’s Couples Daily Lives Lab. During an independent study, she investigated the positive affect induced by musical tempos in the fall of 2018. Over the summer of 2018, she interned for UT Southwestern’s Center for Depression Research and Clinical Care where she researched Cognitive Impairments Influenced by Parental Relationships in Major Depressive Disorder.
In addition to research, she has been President of the Sigma Kappa Delta English Honors Society and founder of Eastfield’s Outdoor Club. She is also a member of Phi Theta Kappa, National Honors Society, and The National Society of Leadership and Success.
Currently, Lauren is serving as president of UTD’s chapter for Psi Chi, International Honor Society in Psychology and research assisting for UTD’s ATEC ArtSciLab. In the ArtSciLab, she is working on the implementation of transdisciplinary curricula alongside Dr. Kathryn Evans and Dr. Roger Malina.
ALEKHYA KALIDINDI
My name is Alekhya Kalidindi and I graduated in May 2019 with a psychology BS and a minor in business administration. During my time in the lab, I was able to work on coding a couple of videos using the TCFES scale and researched couple attachment pairings’ affect on conflict management. I was able to be the first author on a poster and presented at the Society for Personality and Social Psychology national conference. I am now a graduate student at TAMU Corpus Christi getting my MS in professional counseling. My hope is to one day work at the VA with PTSD patients.
