Reading for Wellbeing

The focus of my SDA was the investigation of recreational reading and its impact on wellbeing among university students at Warwick. Personally, I always turn to fiction when I am feeling down; the aim of my SDA was to explore whether other students also utilised this. I achieved this through conducting an online questionnaire which was distributed to Warwick students. Furthermore, to explore gain further insight into the benefits of recreational reading, I also conducted a literature review to examine what is already known about this topic in interdisciplinary academia. I also aimed for my SDA to have practical applications, therefore I created a holistic overview of the topic through an academic poster.
