  • Enhancing neurodivergent student success through wellbeing: Protocol for a quasi-experimental evaluation of the Tuned In Connect program across three Australian universities

    Tuned In (Dingle, 2009) is a group emotion regulation intervention that uses participant selected music listening to evoke emotions in session. It has been evaluated with adolescents in mainstream schools, at risk adolescents in community services, and in international and domestic university students. Neurodivergent student partners helped to adapt the program to meet their interests and needs. This 5-session Tuned In Connect program is currently being evaluated with neurodivergent university students at the University of QLD, Melbourne and Newcastle, supported by a $150K grant from the Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success (Curtin University). Outputs to date: protocol paper, conference symposium, Masters thesis.
