EDITH

Hello I am Edith! I am a first-year BPsych student, mainly interested in child and adolescent psychology. I joined COMPASS to deepen my understanding of positive development in children and adolescents while gaining practical experience in research methodologies. Currently I am assisting with article collection and coding for a project on children’s and adolescent’s life goals and prosocial motivation. I look forward to future research opportunities.  

JAIMEE

I’m Jaimee, a first year BPsych student with interests in educational and clinical psychology. Eager to gain practical research experience, I joined the COMPASS lab, where I contribute to projects on culturally responsive teaching and prosocial behaviour in adolescents. 

ADRIANNE

Currently an IB Diploma student in Hong Kong, I intend to pursue psychology at the university level. I possess a strong academic interest in the fields of experimental and social psychology, and hence hence I joined Dr Kim’s COMPASS research lab. My primary role is to assist with literature reviews and documenting research information in her ongoing research projects, an opportunity that allows me to contribute meaningfully to research that advances understandings of student wellbeing and educational psychology. Moreover, this experience has cultivated my interest in pursuing psychology and strengthened my commitment to connecting empirical findings to practical applications.

AIRENE

I am an aspiring researcher with a strong interest in psychology, particularly in human behaviour, cognition, and complex social systems. I view positive psychological interventions as a critical path forward in our current climate of global instability, utilizing compassion and empathy to transform systemic chaos into an environment where human potential can truly flourish. I joined the lab as a volunteer to gain hands-on experience in collaborative psychological research work. I currently assist with literature reviews and documentation related to positive psychological interventions.

ROSITA

I am interested in various areas within psychology and human behavior because they provide opportunities for me to reflect on thoughts, emotions, and behaviors as I observe how people interact and change in different environments. Through this experience, I hope to gain hands on research experience in educational contexts.
