Please peruse the newly released Summer 2018 issue of the SSRL SIG Newsletter. In this issue, we have much content of interest to SIG members, including (but not limited to): a message from our Senior SIG Chair Dr. Bembenutty on how we should ameliorate the ‘Mozart effect’ in our field, a message from the newsletter editors Dr. Boruchovitch and Dr. Flanigan, calls for award nominations and research proposals, reflective essays by various graduate students who participated in this year’s Graduate Student Mentoring Program, reviews of three books on SRL, congratulations to individuals in the SIG who recently completed their doctoral degrees, and photos from the SSRL SIG celebration in New York City. Enjoy.
