Research

Concern for the environment is widespread, but what is stopping people from rolling their sleeves up and getting down to work with some meaningful pro-environmental action? According to a new study published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology, learned helplessness could be acting as a significant barrier to affecting positive environmental change.

Congratulations to Dr. Nancy Maynes, associate professor in the Schulich School of Education, and Sally Holdsworth, Master of Education student, on the publication of their co-authored article in the Canadian Journal of Education.
