It is very rare that an undergraduate (or even a graduate student) can get an article published in a major international scholarly journal.
Jessie Sun is completing her Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) at the University of Melbourne. She looks forward to researching the promotion of human flourishing through mindfulness, positive psychology and social-emotional learning. This research was conducted while on exchange at the University of Pennsylvania.
Congratulations!
