Two of Texas Wesleyan's psychology faculty, along with their research interns, presented at the annual Association for Psychological Sciences convention in New York City on May 22-24.

Dr. Jay Brown presented his research titled "Stress and Fatigue Cause Decrements in both Self-controlled and Socially Cooperative Behaviors."

Dr. Matt Hand, along with recent graduates Phoenix Carlini and Alyssa Jones, presented their research titled "Social Desirability as Situationally Independent and Related to Agreeableness."

The psychology department is extremely proud to be represented so well on a national level. We would like to congratulate them on a successful trip and a job well done.
