Biography

Stéphane Cantin is an Associate Professor at the University of Montreal in the School of Psychoeducation. His research focuses on the role of peers in the social and emotional development of children and adolescents. Specifically, his work aims to describe the processes through which maladaptive behaviors such as social withdrawal and aggression, interpersonal difficulties like peer rejection and victimization, and friend characteristics combine to lead to later social and academic adjustment issues. Currently, he is involved in projects exploring the relational context associated with peer victimization and the development of psychological distress during early adolescence, as well as the influence of challenging social relationships on secondary school students' academic success. He is also developing preventive interventions to assist socially rejected and victimized students in integrating socially within school environments.
