Hi, I am Yiyi Wang.

I'm currently a 4th year PhD student (PhD Candidate) in Psychology at the University of Toronto, Regulatory and Affective Dynamics Laboratory. I received my Bachelor's degree in Social Psychology from the University of California, Irvine and my Master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis from the University of Southern California.

My research focuses on the impact of technology-driven mental health practices on individual emotion regulation, meaning-making, and value identification. I explore the efficacy of online interventions and AI chatbots in promoting coping mechanisms and overall wellbeing.

Something fun about me: I enjoy writing code, developing games, playing with data, making coffee, taking photos, and traveling.
