<a href="http://sitemaker.umich.edu/daphna.oyserman/home">Daphna Oyserman</a> holds joint appointments at the University of Michigan as professor in the School of Social Work and Department of Psychology and as research professor at the Institute for Social Research. The main focus of her research is on the interface between how we think and what we do, with particular interest in how identity in its various guises (including possible selves and racial-ethnic identity) influences motivation and behavior and how to effectively harness the power of identity to enhance effective goal pursuit (of academic, health and other life goals).
