Dr. Jessica Gall Myrick was a 3 time all American distance runner while at Indiana University and went on to become a social scientist and full professor at Penn State University. We talk about her work studying Media Psychology and health and given her running background we dive into how it relates to women’s sports- which she is equipped to speak on. In 2020 she did a study to see what happens to audiences when commentators use sexist language around women’s sport .Links to Jessica’s published works including her text book and her articles via her website emotionsandmedia.com. She’s also currently needing feedback for a study on college athletes so we link her survey as well https://pennstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5zOXFRNpB19RFdk
