Research Summary:

Eric Hehman is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at 捆绑SM社区 and director of the Seeing Human Lab.

Generally, Dr. Hehman鈥檚 research examines how individuals perceive and evaluate one another across group boundaries (e.g., race, gender, sexual-orientation, occupation, etc). To address these questions, he takes a multi-method approach, incorporating a broad range of behavioral (e.g., computer-mouse tracking, digital face modeling, group interactions) and statistical techniques (e.g., multilevel modeling, structural equation modeling).

He received his Ph.D. from the University of Delaware working with Sam Gaertner, and worked as a post-doctoral scholar with Jon Freeman at Dartmouth College and New York University. He was an Assistant Professor at Ryerson University prior to coming to 捆绑SM社区.
