Corey Keyes, PhD - Flourishing and Languishing

Professor Corey Keyes is the Winship Distinguished Research Professor at Emory University. His areas of expertise include social psychology and mental health. His research centres upon illuminating the “two continua” model of health and illness, showing how the absence of mental illness does not translate into the presence of mental health, and revealing that the causes of true health are often distinct processes from those now understood as the risks for mental illness. This work is being applied to understanding resilience, prevention of mental illness, and informs the growing healthcare approach called “Predictive Health,” which monitors the presence of positive physical and mental health and to develop and apply responses to correct early losses of it to maintain health and limit disease and illness. He has and continues to work on healthcare transformation and public mental health with governmental agencies in Canada, Northern Ireland, Australia, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevent, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and the American Association of Colleges and Universities. Here, Professor Keyes delivers the Keynote Address at the 20th Anniversary Conference of the Human Resource Development Graduate Programmes Unit of the Department of Sociology, Psychology and Social Work at the University of the West Indies' Mona Campus on 27 May 2015.
