Couples Coping with Stress Lab
Welcome to the Couples Coping with Stress Lab website!
Stress is an all too common experience for individuals and couples around the world. Although these experiences can have deleterious effects on both individual and relational functioning, romantic partners have the unique ability to regulate each other’s emotions during times of distress.
The Couples Coping with Stress Lab, under the direction of Dr. Ashley K. Randall, applies an interdisciplinary, strength-based, approach to address how individuals who are from and/or live outside of the United States and/or identify as a sexual minority (e.g., lesbian, gay, or bisexual) cope with stress in the context of their romantic relationship.
