Социальные сети:

Биография и Путь Автора

David DeSteno built his career at the intersection of social psychology, moral behavior, and public-facing writing. Educated at Vassar College, where he graduated with honors in psychology, he went on to earn an M.S., M.Phil., and Ph.D. in social psychology from Yale University, completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Ohio State University, and joined Northeastern University in 1999. He is now a professor of psychology there and directs the Social Emotions Group. One early turning point, by his own account, came as an undergraduate when he found himself deciding between religious studies and psychology, a choice that foreshadowed a career spent asking how people become more moral, connected, and compassionate.
