Steven Almaraz
Steven Almaraz is an Assistant Professor in the Psychology Department at East Los Angeles College. Although he now spends most of his time educating future psychology enthusiasts, his research interest focuses on how people use perceptual cues (e.g., faces, bodies, movement) to make inferences about the trustworthiness, dominance, sexuality, or mental sophistication of the people around them. Often, his work investigates whether these perceptual inferences are affected by social group memberships and can impact real-world intergroup disparities.
