Phil Mazzocco received an A.B. in Psychology from Ohio
University in 1998, and a Ph. D. in Social Psychology from Ohio State
University in 2005. He then completed a one-year postdoctoral research fellowship
at the Kirwan Institute for the Study
of Race and Ethnicity in 2005-2006. Starting in the Fall of 2006, he
began working at OSU-Mansfield.
Dr. Mazzocco's research focuses on the factors that underlie racial attitudes,
and especially racial policy attitudes. He is also interested in the conditions
under which fairness motives will overwhelm self-interest motives, and vice
versa. His research has appeared in academic journals, edited book chapters,
and at numerous academic conferences. Currently, he covers core courses
in Psychology including General Psychology (Psych
100), Introduction to Social Psychology (Psych
367.01), Research Methods (Psych 300), and Stereotyping and Prejudice (Psych 375).
