Welcome to our December Dictionary Series!
We recognise that we reference a whole bunch of terms and theories on this podcast and felt it was time to have a handy series of definitions that you can keep coming back to. This is a series of 24 x 5 minute episodes covering some key terms that we use a lot in our work at the centre. Episodes will be released daily and definitions have been co-created with or provided by various members of the Centre for Appearance Research team.
In this episode of the series, Maia shares some definitions for the term PSYCHOSOCIAL ADJUSTMENT.
