Psychology of Gender and Sexuality Lab

Welcome to our Lab!

We explore how people understand and experience gender and sexuality in society, focusing on the influence of roles, beliefs, and language.

Our research incorporates diverse research designs and methods, including experiments, correlational studies, longitudinal studies, and cross-cultural investigations, to uncover the dynamic ways in which gender and sexuality impact human experience.

Addressing social disparities, occupational opportunities, health outcomes, discrimination, and societal attitudes, our research contributes to creating a more equitable society.
