I received my PhD at Penn State University as part of the Empathy and Moral Psychology lab. I am also a former visiting Crawford fellow in Ethical Inquiry at the Stanford Social Neuroscience Lab at Stanford University. I consider myself a moral psychologist, broadly interested in altruism, empathy, and prosocial behavior, and specifically studying how we think about, are surprised by, and sometimes (negatively) judge the kindness of others.
Graduate Students

I am a third-year PhD student broadly interested in what language use reveals about people's feelings, motivations, and behavior. Additionally, I am affiliated with the UT Austin NLP and Computational Linguistics Group.
monaxue (at) utexas.edu
I am a second-year PhD student broadly interested in the evolution and cultural evolution of emotion. I plan to use computational models to simulate how emotions may evolve, and I want to use various empirical approaches, including NLP and experimental methods, to study the origins of cross-cultural differences in emotions.
Research Affiliates

I am a PhD candidate working primarily with the Social Cognition Lab at UT Austin. My primary research program on morality is concerned with understanding (1) factors underlying moral judgments, beliefs, and perceptions, and (2) the consequences of moral disagreements and misguided moral perceptions. My secondary research program on misinformation is concerned with uncovering (1) factors underlying misinformation susceptibility and (2) potential ways of counteracting the problem. I am currently collaborating with the CASCog lab on projects investigating the links between empathy and morality.

I am a Ph.D. student in Computational Linguistics at The University of Texas at Austin, where I'm advised by Professor Jessy Li. Collaborating with the CASCog Lab, I am interested in building AI systems that promote emotional well-being.

Hello! I am an undergraduate at UT Austin majoring in psychology and minoring in English. I am entirely fascinated and passionate about personality and how a person's characteristics contribute to the way they live their life as well as how they practice skills such as empathy. I will use these interests for the betterment of industries in the future. In my free time, I adore reading, puzzles, and games!
