Announcing our New Pilot Grantees!

We are thrilled to introduce four incredible new pilot projects funded by our network. Three of these are Secondary Data Analysis projects aimed at emerging scholars, and the the fourth is a Community Engaged Grant project that will support a research partnership between UW-Madison researchers and a local, community non-profit. The titles, names and institutions of the individual grantees can be found below. We look forward to sharing more updates on them as time progresses!

We invite scholars interested in emotional well-being research from any field to sharpen their qualitative skills and connect with their peers across the country.

Data Repositories and Toolkits

NEW-B Data Repository Project

The NEW-B Project is creating a repository of datasets that can be used to evaluate the interplay between EWB and physical health. All datasets include EWB measures (you can check out the current version by clicking the title above).

If you have any suggestions for datasets to include, please send them to Yoobin Park (yoobin.park@ucsf.edu). Publicly accessible datasets, or those that can be (relatively easily) accessed even if proprietary, are preferred. All types of study designs are welcome. Please include a brief description of the data set with information about the study design, number/age range of participants at enrollment, included measures of well-being and physical health to the extent possible.
