About
Dr. Patrick J Carroll is a Professor of Social Psychology at the Ohio State University Lima Campus. His research focuses on the social negotiation of self, exploring both the Psychology of the Changed (self-revision in response to social feedback) and the Psychology of the Changer (attempts to alter others' self-views). His work bridges mental health, relational satisfaction, and identity dynamics across the lifespan.
Education: PhD (2004), MS (2002) from University of Florida; BA (1997) from University of Texas. Awards include the 2024 Sustained Student Mentorship Award, 2022 Fellows Circle Induction, and multiple grants including a NIMH Postdoctoral Traineeship. Noted for interdisciplinary reach, his research spans social psychology, identity theory, and clinical applications.
Recent publications (2023–2025) emphasize uncertain self theory, preparedness, and self-revision consequences. He has also contributed to medical studies on surgical outcomes and diagnostic methods, though these appear peripheral to his core social psychology focus.
- Grants/Awards: Over $140k in research funding, including NIMH support and recurring university recognition.
- Advising: No listed advisees, but sustained mentorship awards suggest strong student engagement.
- Labs/Teams: Not explicitly mentioned, though collaborations in medical studies imply interdisciplinary partnerships.
