Mental health workers hold harsher views toward opioid users (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new study from the University of Georgia suggests that mental health workers may hold the harshest views toward the very patient population they’re supposed to help: people with opioid addiction. The researchers found that healthcare workers in the mental health field, including those providing mental health treatment, support services and more, had higher levels of stigmatizing views toward people with opioid addictions than the general population. In 2024, more than 82,000 people died of an
Could social media change your travel plans? - UGA Today (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New University of Georgia research suggests that social media could be influencing people’s travel plans.

As more students faced medical emergencies because they didn’t have access to their inhalers, more states passed sel
How social media can get people hooked on science - UGA Today (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It can be easy to get sucked into social media for hours on end. Funny, cartoony science videos may be especially interesting, but not to everyone, according to a recent study from the University of Georgia. The goal of many creators isn’t just to make you laugh while giving cool facts. Sometimes, it’s to turn you into a lifelong learner. The researchers showed over 1,000 people TikTok- and Instagram-inspired scientific videos about jellyfish. In general, the more participants enjoyed the video,
