Dr. Yeeun Archer Lee was interviewed by UBC News, CTV Your Morning Vancouver, and The Last Show with David Cooper about her research on the benefits of prosociality. Her findings, which were recently published in the Journal of Personality, suggest that performing simple acts of kindness on a daily basis can meaningfully reduce loneliness and increase social contact, especially for individuals with higher baseline social anxiety and loneliness.
