EPISODE 184 – Jeremy Jamieson, PhD, is Associate Chair and Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Rochester. The primary focus of his work is to understand how experiences of stress impact decisions, emotions, and performance, and how stress responses can be optimized to promote resilience in the face of stressors. He’s particularly interested in studying stress regulation across multiple contexts, including academic achievement, dyadic interactions, and competition to name a few. In the episode, Jeremy discusses why we need to stop thinking of stress as BAD, how to optimize your stress response, the role of social media when it comes to stress…and more!

QUESTIONS I ASK JEREMY IN THE EPISODE:

  • In your bio on the University of Rochester website, it reads: “The primary focus of Dr. Jamieson’s work seeks to understand how experiences of stress impact decisions, emotions, and performance, and how stress responses can be optimized to promote resilience in the face of stressors.” Let’s break this down! How can the experiences of stress impact decisions, emotions, and performance. And how can stress responses be optimized to promote resilience in the face of stressors?
  • Can stress ever be 100% eliminated/managed? Is “stress elimination” the right goal to aim for?
  • How do you feel people miss the mark or spread misconceptions when discussing common stressors?
  • Let’s open the can of worms of social media and its impact on stress levels. Your thoughts?
