معرفی
Amie M Gordon is an Associate Professor of Psychology in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts at the University of Michigan and a Faculty Associate at the Research Center for Group Dynamics, Institute for Social Research.
Her research program centers on social cognitive, affective, and biological factors shaping close relationships, with emphasis on prosocial processes (perspective-taking, gratitude, responsiveness) and their modulation by internal states (sleep deprivation, illness) and external stressors (time pressure, work stress). She uniquely investigates bidirectional psychological, behavioral, and physiological influences between partners and dyadic outcomes emerging from relational interactions.
Recent publications (2024-2017) demonstrate consistent focus on self-transcendent emotions (compassion, gratitude, awe) in relationship contexts, physiological stress responses in intimate bonds, and methodological innovation through large-scale daily assessments. Key trends include cross-cultural examination of awe, pandemic impacts on relationship satisfaction, and the interplay between biological dysregulation and prosocial behavior.
