Development of Self and Emotions Lab (DSEL)

 

The DSEL is directed by Dr. Grace E. Cho, a professor in the Psychology Department at St. Olaf College (http://wp.stolaf.edu/psych/). She received her Ph.D. and M.A. in Developmental Psychology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and her B.A. in Psychology from the University of California at Santa Cruz. At home, she enjoys spending time with her two sons (Gabriel and Nicholas), three cats (Lucy, Kirby, and Simba), and partner (Jeremy).
