    Behavioral Science PSY-1 DRAWING an IMAGINARY

    Behavioral Science PSY-1 DRAWING AN IMAGINARY WORLD: THE EFFECTS ON SHORT-TERM MOOD IMPROVEMENT IN CHILDREN Irfa Kafayat (UG) and Jennifer Drake, Department of Psychology, Brooklyn College, Brooklyn, NY. Previous research has shown that drawing improves short-term mood in both adults and children when used as a form of distraction rather expression (Drake & Winner, 2012; 2013). This study examined the advantages of a distraction drawing task that calls for creation of an imaginary world vs. a non-imaginary world. When children use their imagination to create an imaginary world, their emotions are directed at the events in that imaginary world rather than ongoing, actual events (Harris, 2000). This study included 60 children between the ages of 6 and 8 (M = 7;6; SD = 0;10; 32 females). In order to induce a sad mood, I asked participants to think of a disappointing event. After the negative mood induction, I randomly assigned children: to draw a picture of a real event (a dog chasing a robber) or a picture of an imaginary event (dragon chasing a witch). With the premise that imagination and fictional events can help improve mood, I predicted that those in the imagine condition, children who drew a “dragon chasing a witch” would have a greater mood improvement than those in the real condition. Mood was measured before and after the mood induction and after drawing. Mood improvement did not differ between the two conditions, (1, 59) = 0.366, p = 0.548. However, the imaginary condition was marginally more absorbed in the activity than the real condition, F (1, 59) = 3.109, p = .083.

MTA removes schedules from stops PAGE 2 WHAT’S NEWS Photo courtesy of Kids of the Arts Productions GRID-LOCK SLAMMED In the wake of a moratorium by National Grid on installing new gas hookups in Brooklyn, Queens and Long Island, New York State might consider ending a long-standing agreement it has with the company, giving it a monopoly on supplying gas to homes and businesses. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has directed the Department of Public Service to broad- en an investigation it is currently conducting into the moratorium and to consider alternatives to National Grid as a franchisee for some or all of the areas it currently serves if the problem is not resolved. For more on this story, go to page 10. IMPEACHMENT-KEEN Demonstrators held a protest rally outside U.S. Rep. Max Rose’s Bay Ridge office late last month to urge the pol to back the impeachment of President Donald Trump. Rose, who won his seat in 2018 and has earned a reputation as a centrist willing to work across the aisle on certain issues, has steadfastly refused to back impeachment. For more on this story, go to brooklynreporter.com. FOODIE OUTPOST OPENS Sahadi’s, the family specialty grocery store that’s been a Brooklyn fixture since 1948, finally opened its doors in Industry City late last month. The new space is 7,500 square feet with approximately 80 seats and a bar. It offers the traditional ancient grains and spices, bins of freshly roasted nuts, dried fruits, imported olives and old-fashioned barrels of coffee beans that customers look for at its first location on Atlantic Avenue, along with new additions, such as light breakfast, full coffee service and lunch.
