Faculty and Staff

Dr. Ryan Lundell-Creagh is a personality psychologist who earned his Ph.D in Social and Personality Psychology from the University of California, Berkeley. He then completed a Post Doctoral Fellowship as a College Fellow at Harvard University, with a specialization in teaching psychology. 

Dr. Lundell-Creagh's passion for teaching and diversifying assessment leads him to enjoy instruction of a wide variety of courses, including those in the fields of personality psychology, social psychology, statistics, methodology, health psychology, and biological psychology.

Dr. Lundell-Creagh's research focuses on the interactions between people and contexts, lying broadly at the intersection of personality psychology, social psychology, and emotion/affective science. He pursues three main lines of work: a) how the different situations that people are in can influence the personalities that they express, and the consequences of these expressions for perceptions of the self, other, and personality measurement, b) the interactions between personality and emotion, from both baseline levels (how different traits lead to differing levels of certain emotions) and reactivity (how different traits create differing reactions to the same emotional situation), and c) individual differences in emotion experience, expression, and regulation.
