Intervention ideas:
Question: How can you increase awareness or otherwise intervene in a problem relevant to the psychology of women?
a. Create poster/exhibit/visual presentation celebrating diverse women’s bodies (sizes, colors, ages) and put them up in women’s bathroom stalls (or somewhere else women are likely to see and pay attention to them.)
b. Create presentation about respectful and damaging relationships and present it on your social media, etc).
c. Create poster celebrating women pioneers and exhibit this in a prominent place.
What else you need to know:
1. At this time, you are not actually following through with the intervention, but rather, just coming up with the idea of it.
2. Your ideas MUST be supported by previous research. In order to find that research, look at previous Hyde chapters or other resources within other units. You can also research through the Mt SAC library to find other articles within your intervention topic. DO NOT use unreliable google searches or social media to “support” your ideas.
