Dr. Calhoun is a Clinical Psychologist and Assistant Professor in the UNC School of Education, where he serves as core faculty for the School Psychology doctoral training program. Broadly, Dr. Calhoun’s research examines the neurobiology and subjective experience of stress reactions, incorporating various methodologies (EEG, psychophysiology, neuroendocrine) to establish stress response profiles connected with increased risk of internalizing symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. His work is largely rooted in the interpersonal context, with a particular focus on understanding how teens’ interactions with peers contribute to stress generation and regulation. Dr. Calhoun’s recent projects investigate social media as part of the peer context, working to understand how neural reactions to social media experiences combine with other risk factors to inform psychological symptoms.
