Director, Institute
for Ethnic Studies in the United States Education Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, University of Washington, 1982 Research Interests Dr. George's research interests focus on the role that alcohol plays
in social behavior. This work emphasizes the view that alcohol expectancy theory
and alcohol
myopia theory both play important roles in accounting for post-drinking disinhibition.
Dr. George, along with his colleagues and students,
conduct analogue experiments examining the effects of alcohol and alcohol
expectancies
on perceptions
and
behaviors related to sexuality and violence. Typically, these experiments involve
questionnaire assessment of expectancies, administration of alcohol, and presentation
of sexual and/or violent stimuli. Dr. George is also interested in how cultural
factors and racial stereotypes interact with the above topics. Finally, Dr.
George is interested in multicultural competence in psychological service delivery. |
