Back at Eckerd, Lyle teaches courses in health psychology<\/a>, developmental psychology and research methods, and she will direct the College\u2019s new Health and Well-Being Lab, which starts in the

(CAR) Lab, which will study questions related to cognitive psychology; and Sara Hofmann\u2019s Clinical Processes Lab, which will study questions related to clinical psychology.\u201d<\/p>\n

Raised in Ohio, Lyle received her bachelor\u2019s degree in psychology from Ohio Northern University. She took two years off to work with City Year, an AmeriCorps program, as a teacher\u2019s assistant for at-risk students, and then received her master\u2019s degree from Nova Southeastern University. \u201cI had a professor at my undergraduate institution who taught experimental psychology, and I really loved the class,\u201d she says. \u201cI started thinking this is something I might want to do with my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked about her research and teaching interests, Lyle is quick to point out the importance of recognizing and trying to treat stress in present-day America, given stressors such as the pandemic, the war in Eastern Europe and hurricanes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s incredibly important,\u201d she says. \u201cI teach a health psychology class that highlights recent\u2014and not so recent\u2014research linking stress to mental and physical health. In this class, we discuss the physiological changes that short-term stressors cause in our body and how, over time, these stressors can lead to long-lasting biological changes that put people at risk for many of the common chronic diseases of aging such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, there is a large and growing body of research to suggest that stress is actually a stronger predictor of someone\u2019s long-term health than health behaviors like diet and exercise.\u201d<\/p>\n

But now, she adds, the skies are clear and the future is bright. \u201cI\u2019m super excited to be here,\u201d she says. \u201cI can only imagine the lifetime of learning that can happen here.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
