I am a master’s student in psychology at the University of Zürich. I have freshly started my master’s thesis on the associations of emotion control values and entity beliefs with prolonged grief symptoms among German-speaking and Chinese bereaved adults. This allows a seamless follow-up to my bachelor’s thesis on transcultural differences in repetitive negative thinking associated with prolonged grief disorder. Moreover, the specific focus on Chinese culture aligns with me personally, having spent my adolescence within this cultural context and currently pursuing my fourth Chinese language course.
