Climb Above Addiction Image 071
No full textThe Climb Above Addiction cluster project addresses the need for awareness, support, and education for those affected by addiction. The event component of the project, similar to the Relay for Life but with climbing rather than walking a track, raised money to support a scholarship for the Plymouth House recovery program.

Adolescent Patient: Comparison of Traditional Pharmacological and Nonpharmacological Therapies for Treatment of Depression
No full textMental health is a large component of one’s overall health. Mental health is a trending topic that has still lacked the research it needs to match the improving practices of the rest of modern healthcare. We decided to narrow our search on the population of adolescents. Depression is the leading cause of illness and disability among adolescents, and suicide is the second leading cause of adolescent death (WHO). According to WHO, “half of all mental health disorders start by age 14, but most cases are undetected and untreated”. Prevalence of depression in adolescents has increased over the years despite there being many different methods of treatment. A literature review was conducted utilizing databases such as Google Scholar, CINAHL, and Ebscohost with a focus of looking at the effectiveness between SSRIs, SNRIs, and CBT in treating adolescent depression
Peers Educating Peers: Healthy Living at PSU
Get PDFPeer leaders worked with eleven students to lead small groups of students using a health and wellness curriculum (HealthyCARE® by Genavix, LLC). This pilot project was used to increase student’s knowledge, awareness and implementation of health promotion skills and behaviors that reinforce the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. This pilot project engaged students weekly and individually, in a collaborative approach to deliver education on nutrition, fitness and total well-being practices to promote healthy behaviors in college students in an open and creative environment. Peer health coaches support like- minded students individually in realizing their own wellness goals through a positive, strengths-focused approach. This project is aligned with Healthy PSU\u27s overarching goal of becoming one of the healthiest campus in the nation by 2020
Squam Lake\u27s Water Quality Through Time
Get PDFI am doing water quality research on Squam and Newfound Lake, to find whether the water quality is driven by local drivers or a bigger driver like climate. My hypothesis is that an outside the watershed factor, climate, is what is driving the water quality of Newfound and Squam Lakes. If this is true, the two lakes will go through the same changes such as algal blooms around the same time. If not, then there will be different patterns in the water chemistry and diatoms due to local factors. I will be collecting water samples for water chemistry analysis and collecting diatoms for diatom identification. These lakes are in separate watersheds so, if their water quality is driven by local factors theses should have different water quality chemistry and diatoms. This project is the primary step of the project before analyzing both Squam and Newfound Lakes. This step included taking water samples for water chemistry, analyzing diatoms in a sediment core from Squam Lake from 2014 to learn about the past water quality. Also, analyzing diatoms from a pond that was under eutrophication to compare the diatoms to see if Squam Lake has been through eutrophication in the past
