Jaeyoung Kim serves as an assistant professor in the Department of Counseling, Educational Psychology and Special Education at Michigan State University. His scholarly pursuits are principally focused on elucidating the complex associations between individuals' traumatic experiences and the multifaceted psychosocial outcomes observed in persons with disabilities, with a particular emphasis on employment-related factors. To achieve this aim, Kim has conducted rigorous research to examine the manifold effects of trauma, including but not limited to, post-traumatic beliefs and emotional regulation. His work seeks to further illuminate these elements in the context of self-determined motivation, virtues and post-traumatic growth. Through this avenue of inquiry, Kim aspires to deepen the academic understanding of the intersectional relationships between trauma and disability.
