Body image in the age of the feed
What is the relationship between social media experiences and body-image concerns? How can we discuss body dysmorphic disorder without reducing a complex condition to a simple online trend?
An emerging psychology collective
A place for minds that don't stop questioning.
Mind Assembly brings psychology students and emerging thinkers together to explore ideas, examine evidence and turn shared curiosity into collaborative work. We're still building—and that's part of the invitation.

01 / Our first initiative
Explore yourself. Question thoughtfully.
Our first selected initiative is a self-discovery experience. The important part is not a label, but what it helps you reflect on—and what it cannot tell you.

Questions worth exploring.
These are themes raised in our recent discussions—not published findings or officially launched research studies.

When emotions travel without words
Can someone communicate how they feel through the posts they like, share or engage with? Where does meaningful communication end and interpretation begin?
03
From an observation to a research question
How do we turn an interesting psychological phenomenon into a researchable, ethically responsible question? We're exploring what collaborative inquiry could look like.
These topics emerged in team conversations. The external reading links offer background only; they are not Mind Assembly publications or evidence of completed studies.
