The influence paper, “The Impact of Exercise on Depression Levels in College Students” is a research paper that was worked on and created throughout the semester by three other classmates: McKenna Remillard, Kallie Collinge, Madison Lomax, and myself. Through this research paper, we discussed the question “In college-aged individuals who suffer from depression, what is the impact of exercise in conjunction with current pharmacological treatment, as compared to current pharmacological treatment alone to impact the individual’s symptoms of depression?”  by researching three different peer-reviewed journal articles. Depression is a problem that we see in society, and, through this research, we wanted to discuss exercise as a non-pharmacological way to treat depression symptoms.
