The scholarly work of Concordia faculty and researchers informs and improves society on many issues that affect our daily lives. Visit the Research section to read news stories involving research at Concordia, or read the most recent items here:
- Adam Radomsky, professor in the Department of Psychology, appeared on CTV News Montreal at noon yesterday to discuss an international study he conducted in collaboration with 15 other researchers which found that 94 per cent of people experience unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images and/or impulses. The results of this study mean that therapists can focus on applying effective treatments for OCD that will work cross-culturally.
- Holly Recchia, professor in the Department of Education and CRDH researcher, in collaboration with colleagues from the University of Utah, conducted a study on how mothers can help children understand moral issues. Their study found that how parents speak with their children about inappropriate behaviour helps to shape their moral growth. The research was featured in Medical News Today, The Health Site, The Times of India, Yahoo! News India, News R, News, Inagist, Wallstreeter and The Free Press Journal. The article also appears on The New Reddit Journal of Science.
