Identity shifting represents a common but complex social, behavioral, and cognitive phenomenon.

Participants consisted of 764 young adults (ages = 18–23) recruited from two large public universities in the Southeast and …

The COVID-19 pandemic threatens to exacerbate the school psychology personnel crisis. There is a dearth of knowledge regarding how the pandemic has impacted school psychology trainers and course delivery. In this national study, 92 school psychology trainers completed an online questionnaire regarding technological instructional changes, job satisfaction, and their own mental health well-being during the pandemic.

Furthermore, a sizable portion …
