In 2015, Hanh Nguyen, a Business English student at Foreign Trade University in Vietnam, applied for the Globalink Research Internship and was matched with a project at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 and IWK Health Centre鈥檚 Centre for Research in Family Health.
The project Hanh Phuc worked on consisted of two components. The first component compared the use of physical punishment in both Canadian and Vietnamese families and the reasons why families use this method of discipline. Along with her supervisor, Dr. Patrick McGrath, Hanh Phuc was able to develop a self-reporting tool that asks parents to identify their reasons for using corporal punishment.
The second component of the project saw Hang Phuc get trained as a coach for , a distance treatment program for families requiring mental health care for their children.
