The Health and Adult Development Lab!

Our research examines the role of social relationships and motivational processes for wellbeing and health. We aim to identify key social and motivational resources that contribute to the successful mastery of challenges and pathways to wellbeing and health across the adult lifespan.

If you are interested in a volunteer position, please email your statement of motivation (one page), unofficial transcript, and CV to lab manager Anita at hoppmannlab@psych.ubc.ca.
