Central Washington University wants to enter the mind of a first responder by examining how they deal with stress. In particular, the university’s psychology department is studying if emergency personnel can better deal with the stress of their jobs by writing about their experiences. CWU psychology student Ann Marie Farina is collecting data for a survey to better understand the effects that sharing traumatic experiences through writing has on the mental health of first responders.
