概述
文化与人际关系实验室由 Dr. 凯伦吴. Currently, we are investigating an array of different research questions, including:
- How are our genes related to our personality traits, social behaviors, and social relationships?
- 人们如何看待处于跨种族关系中的人?
- 是什么导致了约会中的种族偏好?
- 为什么有些人会选择长得像自己的人做伴侣?
- 在不同的文化背景下，“我爱你”意味着什么? 人们在恋爱关系中是如何解读这种表达的呢?
- 我们对喵星人的看法是怎样的, 爱他们的方式, 与它们的互动预示着我们的幸福?
- How do people of diverse cultural groups experience and navigate social exclusion? 他们面对的是什么样的偏见?
Graduate students are not limited to these topics and are encouraged to generate and test their own research questions on topics related to culture and/or close relationships. 因此, graduate students should develop skills in independent thinking and creativity that will aid them in a research-oriented PhD program.
