    Name(s): Creator (cre): Veloce, Linnea, Thesis advisor (ths): DeCicco, Teresa, Degree committee member (dgc): Smith, Carlyle, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>The Continuity Hypothesis states that dreams reflect waking day cognition and experiences, which reflect one's mental health status. As such, dreams are, by extension, cognitions that occur during sleep. To date, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is deemed the most efficacious method of social anxiety treatment by working with cognitions. The current study utilized both CBT and… more

    An Emergent Model of the Return to Learn Process for Adolescents with Prolonged Concussion

    Name(s): Creator (cre): Robinson, Jackie, Thesis advisor (ths): O'Hagan, Fergal, Thesis advisor (ths): Lehmann, Hugo, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>Current literature on concussion management focuses primarily on the return to physical activity, while the return to learn process is less clearly understood. This knowledge gap is particularly problematic for adolescents, whose primary responsibility is academics. The present study sought to develop a more in-depth understanding of the return to learn process through the perspectives… more
