1. Evaluating the efficacy of “Growing with Gratitude”: A community school-based program for promoting students’ resilience and well-being
Research has suggested that increasing protective factors, such as gratitude or resilience, is one of the key strategies that protects against the development of psychological disorders in children. The current project would investigate the efficacy of a community developed universal school-based prevention approach for children, “Growing with Gratitude”, that aims to promote children’s levels of gratitude and resilience. Furthermore, the project will also aim to explore how the programs effect change by examining trait levels of emotion regulation as potential mechanisms by which the programs prevent negative affect such as anxiety and depression. This project would be conducted in collaboration with Dr Junwen Chen, ANU and would suit a student with excellent oral and written communication skills and a strong background in psychology.
2. Perinatal borderline personality disorder has received little attention, despite the distress suffered by the woman and the known effects on her offspring and family. A 2 stage project in this area, conducted in conjunction with AProf Anne Sved Williams, would first focus on the identification of BPD during pregnancy, and the second stage would then review the effects of an intervention on birth outcomes and postnatal infant relationships. The intervention would be an adaptation of dialectical behaviour therapy or mentalisation based therapy so the project would suit a student interested in combining learning research and clinical skills.
3. A pilot program (MI-DBT) which combines dialectical behaviour therapy with parenting information and actions designed to improve mother-infant relationships has showed very promising results with improvements in both maternal mental health and parenting confidence. A project which randomises attendees into MI-DBT, treatment as usual or another mode of therapy such as the Lighthouse Program and follows up families to explore longer-term outcomes for children would provide worthwhile information to those many families where perinatal borderline personality disorder remains largely untreated. This PhD would be conducted in conjunction with AProf Anne Sved Williams.
