Cutting Edge Research

My current research is on workplace anger, incivility, prejudice and discrimination based on gender, race-ethnicity, sexual orientation, and disability, as well as social change and terrorism through a multicultural and cross-cultural perspective, which enlarges the range of hypothesis testing. I welcome graduate students from any sequence who are interested in minority issues to join my cross-cultural lab. I am also a mentor to undergraduates interested in research apprenticeship opportunities (e.g., independent study--PSY 290), which allow them to learn valuable skills, such as working as a team, managing data, collecting data, and interacting with research participants. Feel free to stop by my office in DeGarmo Hall, room 456, to discuss this opportunity further. A list of papers presented during 2011 is available below. For information on other papers or articles, see my curriculum vitae by clicking here (PDF format).
