Bio
Linda X. Zou (she/her) is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Maryland. She is a social psychologist and the PI of the Diversity and Intergroup Relations Lab. Dr. Zou received her PhD from the University of Washington in 2019.
Dr. Zou’s research investigates how intergroup relations are affected by groups’ broader social, cultural, and historical contexts. She is particularly interested in exploring this question within the realm of race and ethnicity. Recent work in her lab investigates (1) how racial discrimination manifests within the contemporary United States, (2) how dominant group members (e.g., White Americans) respond to growing diversity, and (3) the conditions that build or break solidarity among marginalized groups (e.g., people of color).
