The Anger and Traffic Psychology Lab was well-represented at the 2019 American Psychological Association convention in Chicago. Philip Stoner, A.J. Qureshi, and Hailee Buras attended the conference, and Philip and Hailee presented posters based on their research.

Philip’s poster was based on his master’s thesis and described his finding that emotion regulation moderated the relationship between vulnerable narcissism and self-criticism. Hailee’s poster, which also utilized data collected as part of Philip’s thesis project but not used in his thesis, described her finding that anxiety moderated the relationship between peer exclusivity and relational aggression among college students.

Hailee is completing her honor’s thesis in the lab, and this was her first professional conference. She received a Discovery Scholar Research Grant from the Honors College at the University of Southern Mississippi, which supported her travel to Chicago.

Congratulations on a successful conference!
