WiMSSY Research Lab
Wellness in Multi-tiered Systems of School Psychology
Welcome to the Wellness in Multi-tiered Systems of School Psychology (WiMSSY) Research Lab in the School Psychology Program at the University of Northern Colorado.
WiMSSY is a collaborative team of graduate students dedicated to conducting research on understanding how positive, inclusive, and intersectional evidence-based supports can benefit students. WiMSSY not only aims to enhance positive skills for students that expand into social, emotional, and mental health domains, but also to improve academic outcomes that contribute to long-term achievement. Researchers focus on the benefits of various interventions, for students ages 3 to 21+, in diverse populations and settings.
Our Mission
Our mission is to increase understanding of how implementing positive, inclusive, evidenced-based interventions for students at all stages of education can improve their academic and social-emotional skills so that they generalize to overall feelings of empowerment and well-being.
