Seeking spring TA for PSY 1845 Stigma, Discrimination, and Health

by Pagano, Allie

The Psychology Department is seeking a spring term Teaching Assistant for PSY 1845 Stigma, Discrimination, and Health taught by Professor Mark Hatzenbuehler. Course description: What is stigma? How do stigmatized identities and conditions differ from each other? Why do we stigmatize? What are the consequences of stigma for cognitions and emotions, for social relationships, and for health? Through what mechanisms-individual, interpersonal, and structural-does stigma operate to produce adverse health outcomes? How do stigmatized individuals cope with and resist stigma? How can we reduce stigma and its negative effects? In this course we will consider stigma as a fundamental cause of health inequalities across a broad range of phenomena, including (but not limited to) mental illness, sexual and gender diversity, weight, disability, aging, poverty, and immigration status. Students can expect to examine stigma as a predicament that affects nearly all individuals at some point in the life course, and to develop expertise in an individual stigma that is relevant to their personal, academic, and professional interests through a series of focused course assignments. General TA duties: Leading weekly discussion sections, holding office hours, grading assignments and exams, attending lectures, attending weekly teaching meetings, and related duties as outlined by the course instructor. Interested candidates should email me (alexandra_pagano(a)harvard.edu<mailto:alexandra_pagano@harvard.edu>) a copy of their resume/CV and a short description of their interest and qualifications.
