Center for Mindset Research

The Center for Mindset Research studies how people's beliefs about their abilities—called mindsets—affect their learning, motivation, and success. It explores how developing a growth mindset (believing abilities can improve with effort) can improve educational outcomes and personal development. The center conducts research, creates programs, and shares findings to help educators, students, and organizations foster positive mindsets that support resilience, learning, and achievement. Their work aims to better understand the psychological factors behind motivation and to develop strategies that enable individuals to reach their full potential.
