Jeewon Oh, assistant professor of psychology in the College of Arts and Sciences, was a guest on WCNY’s Checkup From the Neck-Up podcast, hosted by Dr. Rich O’Neill. The episode, titled "'Singlehood,' Relationships, Happiness and 'Attachment'," explored the growing number of adults living without a partner and the psychological factors that influence happiness in both single and partnered lives.

In the episode, Oh, a personality-social psychology researcher, discussed how our sense of security—both within ourselves and in our relationships—affects emotional well-being. She and O’Neill examined how understanding attachment styles can help individuals strengthen their own sense of secure attachment and support their partners more effectively.

The conversation offered insights into how attachment theory applies to modern relationship dynamics and provided practical strategies for fostering emotional resilience and connection.
