Biography

Assistant Professor of Psychology Kevin Carriere joined the Stonehill College community in 2023. He previously taught at Washington & Jefferson College in Washington, Pennsylvania. As a cultural political psychologist, his research explores how groups, individuals and societal forces negotiate, understand and manipulate rights. In his qualitative and theoretical work, he uses cultural semiotic theory to drive quantitative explorations of pressing policy questions, driven by his time as the James Marshall Public Policy Fellow from 2019 to 2020, working in the House of Representatives for Congresswoman Deb Haaland as a policy advisor. 

He is currently co-editor of Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy. He has also served as an associate editor for Current Psychology, section editor for Europe’s Journal of Psychology and editorial director of Culture & Psychology.
