Kathryn Lively

Dean, College at Dartmouth College

I am a Professor (and Past Chair, 2011-15) in the Sociology Department. I am also currently Dean of the College. I served as the inaugural house professor for South House (2015-19). My teaching and research interests are at the nexus of identity, emotion, and culture. As a result, I teach introductory courses in sociological social psychology, emotion, and culture. I am currently involved in two long-term research projects. The first deals with identity loss among eldery persons with Alzheimer's disease. The second seeks to identify the social psychological and cultural mechanisms that underly significant and sustainable weight loss. In the past, I have served on the editorial boards of Journal of Health and Social Behavior and Social Psychology Quarterly and as action editor for Emotion Review. My scholarly work has appeared in such outlets as American Journal of Sociology, Social Forces, Social Psychology Quarterly, Emotion Review, Work & Occupations, and Symbolic Interaction, among others.
