Dr Kennedy Obohwemu, a well-known Nigerian researcher living in the United Kingdom, has made significant contributions to worldwide mental health research by providing a new viewpoint on emotional resilience and self-comforting habits. 
His achievement is documented in the Self-Comforting Attitude Theory (SCAT) and its companion Self-Comforting Attitude Scale (SCAS).
The lecturer at Oxford Brookes University (OBU) in England explained that the research was prompted by his own experience during the COVID-19 lockdowns, which highlighted the necessity of internal resources in handling mental anguish.
He went on: “In moments of crisis, people often rely on internal resources to stay emotionally afloat.” But whether or not individuals use such methods is primarily determined by how they see them—whether they regard self-comforting as weak or wise, indulgent or necessary.
“That is the focus of SCAT and SCAS, which is set to transform emotional wellness.” The publication of SCAT and SCAS brings a four-part conceptual framework known as the Self-Comforting Framework to a close, giving researchers and clinicians with tools to assess both the acts and attitudes that support emotional resilience.
Obohwemu’s growing body of influential research establishes him as a prominent figure in psychology science.
The innovation, it was discovered, supplements his previous acclaimed work, the Self-Comforting and Coping Theory (SCCT) and the Self-Comforting and Coping Scale (SCCS).
