Students Participate in Carolina Psychology Conference By Steven Salisbury Contributing Writer Methodist College psychology department and Psi Chi, Methodist College chapter, would like to recognize and congratulate those students who presented their research at the Carolina Psychology Conference on April 10 at North Carolina State University. The Carolina Psychology Conference is an important venue for research presenta tion, particularly in the southeastern region. Students from all across the eastern sea board present undergraduate research at this conference. The selection process for this conference is grueling, yet, every year Methodist College is always well-represented. This alone is a statement to the quality education received in the psychology department of Methodist College. However, let us not forget the most important component of this conference; the students. These students, all of whom are full-time psychology majors, have worked diligently on their research proposals this semester. Johanna Bellanger, Laura Szyikowski, and Anu Kommu’s research title was: “Does the order of information about physical appearance and personality similarity affect heterosexual difference?” Kristina Rodriguez’s research title was: “Affect of behavior contrasting with a gen der stereotype and congruency between gender and gender identity on sex discrimina tion.” Jessica Espada and Jarrell Wilson’s research title was: “Does the effect similarity ot personality on heterosexual attraction depend on judging and perceiving? These students have contributed to the field of psychology by their research. And in doing so, have accomplished one of the founding purposes of Psi Chi. to advance the science of psychology.
