Eliana Hadjiandreou Receives an Educational Grant from the A. G. Leventis Foundation

Eliana Hadjiandreou has received an Educational Grant from the A. G. Leventis Foundation in Cyprus ($12,000) to support the first year of her doctoral research. The grant will support a project exploring 1) how undergoing adversity may create pathways to prosocial emotions through mechanisms of meaning-making and reduced perceived cognitive costs of empathy in samples undergoing medical, economic, and social adversity and 2) the potential prosocial effects of parochial empathy stemming from such adversity-based group memberships. Congratulations, Eliana!
