Jessica L. Collett is Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles. This very book, in a much earlier edition, inspired her own interest in social psychology during her time as an undergraduate at Winthrop University. After Winthrop, she went on to study social psychology at the University of Arizona, where she received her Ph.D. in Sociology in 2006. She is an award-winning instructor, most recently receiving the Charles E. Sheedy Award for Excellence in Teaching from the College of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame. She regularly teaches social psychology at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as courses on social inequality and socialization and the life course.
