Deborah J. Wu

I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Stonehill College. 

As of January 2025, I will be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Arizona State University. I plan to accept a PhD student this upcoming cycle (starting Fall 2025).

I study how social identities and emotions shape our experiences, attitudes, and behavior.

I have three main lines of research:

I utilize multiple methods, ranging from surveys, implicit measures, nonverbal behavioral coding, autonomic nervous system physiology, and EEG. 


I received my PhD from the University of Massachusetts in 2022 and completed a postdoctoral research fellowship from Northwestern University in 2023.
