Kathleen D. Vohs
University of Minnesota
Visiting Scholar
2013 to 2014
Vohs and Roy F. Baumeister will undertake two separate projects: one which will summarize and integrate the research literature on the “strength model” of self-control; and a second that will investigate the psychological and subjective meaning of money by examining how thought processes, values, and decision-making change when money is involved.
Adam Waytz
Northwestern University
Visiting Scholar
2018 to 2019
Waytz will research the extent to which automation—or the replacement of human tasks with machines—affects people’s perceptions of themselves, others, and work. He will conduct a series of experiments to determine how people evaluate information differently based on whether a machine or human produces that information, whether automated whistleblowing systems can encourage ethical behavior, and whether concerns about automation replacing jobs contribute to anti-immigrant prejudice.
Elke Weber
Columbia University
Visiting Scholar
2007 to 2008
Eric Johnson (Fall 2007), Norman Eig Professor of Business at Columbia University, and Elke Weber, Jerome A. Chazen Professor of International Business at Columbia University, will spend the fall semester working together on a chapter on “Judgment and Decision Making” for the Annual Review of Psychology, focused on cognitive processes in judgment and choice.
Arthur Whaley
University of Texas
Visiting Scholar
2006 to 2007
Arthur Whaley, Professor of Psychology at the University of Texas, will write a book on the impact of racism on mental health, examining the effects of both interpersonal and societal discrimination on African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans. He will explore how social factors such as citizenship, political participation, and economic well-being affect the mental health of minorities, and their ability to cope with racism in America.
Hirokazu Yoshikawa
Harvard University
Visiting Scholar
2008 to 2009
Hirokazu Yoshikawa, Professor of Education at the Graduate School of Education, Harvard University, will write a book about child development in low-income immigrant families.
