Bethany Albertson (Ph.D., University of Chicago), assistant professor,
joined the department in 2006. She studies political psychology
and public opinion. Her dissertation research examined the use of
religious language in political appeals, and used experimental methods
to understand the effects of these appeals on political attitudes.
This research was supported by the National Science Foundation and
the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics at Princeton University.
Her substantive research interests include persuasion, ambivalence,
implicit attitudes, and race and religion in US politics. She teaches
American Politics, Voting and Elections, and Political Psychology
