About the Author

David Rohall (de-rohall@wiu.edu), received his Ph.D. in 2000 from University of Maryland-College Park, and is now Assistant Professor of Sociology at Western Illinois University.  In addition to general courses in sociology, Dr. Rohall teaches courses in sociological social psychology, identity, and socialization.  His primary research interests lie within the social structure and personality perspective, including the study of how social structural conditions impact individuals' sense of self and their attitudes and beliefs about the world.

 

Melissa A. Milkie (mmilkie@socy.umd.edu) received her Ph.D. in 1995 from Indiana University, and is currently Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland-College Park.  Her primary research interests, often framed within a symbolic interactionist perspective, are in articulating how cultural values and ideals related to dimensions of stratification like gender, race, and social class, are critical influences on the Self-concept and mental health. 

 

Jeffrey W. Lucas (jlucas@socy.umd.edu) received his Ph.D. in 2000 from the University of Iowa, and is now Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland-College Park. His primary research interest, centrally located within the group processes perspective, is the experimental analysis of theories of basic social processes.
