Dr. Yeeun Archer Lee (Assistant Professor at Trinity Western University and lab alumna) chaired a symposium entitled, “Social Well-being Across Time and Space” at SPSP 2025 in Denver, Colorado! The speakers at the symposium presented research on how multiple dimensions of social well-being – social support, loneliness, and prosociality – unfold across time and space.
Dr. Yeeun Archer Lee presented “Global trends and disparities in social support,” and Julia Nakamura (UBC PhD Student in the Social Health Lab) presented “Who volunteers, gives, and helps? Cross-national variation in prosociality.”
Other presentations included:
“Stability and change of facet-specific loneliness across the lifespan” – Anne Neuber (University Witten/Herdecke)
“The influence of regional prosociality on immigrant well-being” – Sakshi Sahakari (UBC PhD Student in the PANGEA Lab)
Julia Nakamura also presented this work at the Happiness and Well-Being Preconference as part of a presentation on The Global Flourishing Study.
