Professor of Psychology
Expertise
Social Psychology, Human Sexuality, Gender
Dr. Giuliano holds a B.A. in psychology from The University of Texas and an M.A. and Ph.D. in social psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles. She has been a member of the Southwestern faculty since 1994, and still considers Southwestern her dream job. In 2009, she was named holder of the John H. Duncan Chair, one of six endowed positions funded by the Brown Foundation of Houston. She enjoyed hosting Southwestern’s annual Brown Symposium (“Sex Talk: A Symposium With Benefits”) in 2013.
Teaching Philosophy
As a teacher, I want to inspire others the way that I have been inspired. Throughout my life, my teachers have had a tremendous impact on me (academically, socially, and personally) by serving as role models and by sharing their passion. I want my students to feel the way I felt when I was in college–to be so passionate about learning that they never, ever want to miss a single college class (as I didn’t); to feel compelled to write a letter explaining a research finding to Ann Landers, as a “Psych Student from Georgetown, Texas” did after learning about that finding in my intro psych class; and to be so excited about social psychology that they cannot resist the urge to constantly describe its theories and experiments to their parents, friends, and romantic partners, even to the point of annoyance (as I did, and as my students do now). Toward this end, I rely heavily on active learning demonstrations to make the material engaging (e.g., social psychology students participate in a dating marketplace simulation in order to understand the matching hypothesis in attraction) as well as assignments that encourage students to apply course content to their lives (e.g., students post multimedia blogs about their experiences breaking a social norm or taking an online prejudice test). In addition, because I think it’s crucial for students to become more effective communicators, I devote immense amounts of time in all my courses to teaching students to write clearly, logically, and professionally. To help guide them, I share the “recipe” for good scientific writing, I provide numerous detailed handouts (on grammar, scientific content, and APA style) and examples of good papers from previous students, and I spend hours making copious comments on their papers. Finally, I connect with students and care deeply about their academic, professional, and personal development. Although I’m thrilled when an undergraduate gets word that the manuscript she labored over for a year has been accepted for publication, I’m every bit as tickled when a C student who has been struggling to “get” research methods surprises both of us with an A on the final paper or the final exam. The opportunity to establish meaningful relationships outside the classroom is also very fulfilling. I especially appreciate that my classes eagerly come to my house every semester to devour fajitas and corn casserole, to play dodge ball on my sport court, and to dance to hip hop with my 10-year old daughter; that my winter break each year is filled with visits by former students who regale me with tales of life in graduate school, the CIA, or a non-profit agency; and that these relationships allow me to watch students grow up, get married, start careers, and embark on a variety of adventures.

Having grown up as a tomboy playing sports on all-boys’ teams, Giuliano is fascinated by the role that gender plays in influencing not only our own perceptions and behavior, but also others’ perceptions of and behavior toward us. Her research explores the effects of gender in a variety of applied contexts, including sports, health, communication, and sexuality. Giuliano has published 37 articles in peer-reviewed journals, 28 of which include 64 undergraduate student co-authors. Mentoring students through research is Giuliano’s passion, and she is proud that her students have served as first author on 23 articles and that 11 of her students have earned national paper competition awards.

Biography
Dr. Giuliano holds a B.A. in psychology from The University of Texas and an M.A. and Ph.D. in social psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles. She has been a member of the Southwestern faculty since 1994, and still considers Southwestern her dream job. In 2009, she was named holder of the John H. Duncan Chair, one of six endowed positions funded by the Brown Foundation of Houston. She enjoyed hosting Southwestern’s annual Brown Symposium (“Sex Talk: A Symposium With Benefits”) in 2013.
Teaching Philosophy
As a teacher, I want to inspire others the way that I have been inspired. Throughout my life, my teachers have had a tremendous impact on me (academically, socially, and personally) by serving as role models and by sharing their passion. I want my students to feel the way I felt when I was in college–to be so passionate about learning that they never, ever want to miss a single college class (as I didn’t); to feel compelled to write a letter explaining a research finding to Ann Landers, as a “Psych Student from Georgetown, Texas” did after learning about that finding in my intro psych class; and to be so excited about social psychology that they cannot resist the urge to constantly describe its theories and experiments to their parents, friends, and romantic partners, even to the point of annoyance (as I did, and as my students do now). Toward this end, I rely heavily on active learning demonstrations to make the material engaging (e.g., social psychology students participate in a dating marketplace simulation in order to understand the matching hypothesis in attraction) as well as assignments that encourage students to apply course content to their lives (e.g., students post multimedia blogs about their experiences breaking a social norm or taking an online prejudice test). In addition, because I think it’s crucial for students to become more effective communicators, I devote immense amounts of time in all my courses to teaching students to write clearly, logically, and professionally. To help guide them, I share the “recipe” for good scientific writing, I provide numerous detailed handouts (on grammar, scientific content, and APA style) and examples of good papers from previous students, and I spend hours making copious comments on their papers. Finally, I connect with students and care deeply about their academic, professional, and personal development. Although I’m thrilled when an undergraduate gets word that the manuscript she labored over for a year has been accepted for publication, I’m every bit as tickled when a C student who has been struggling to “get” research methods surprises both of us with an A on the final paper or the final exam. The opportunity to establish meaningful relationships outside the classroom is also very fulfilling. I especially appreciate that my classes eagerly come to my house every semester to devour fajitas and corn casserole, to play dodge ball on my sport court, and to dance to hip hop with my 10-year old daughter; that my winter break each year is filled with visits by former students who regale me with tales of life in graduate school, the CIA, or a non-profit agency; and that these relationships allow me to watch students grow up, get married, start careers, and embark on a variety of adventures.

Research
Having grown up as a tomboy playing sports on all-boys’ teams, Giuliano is fascinated by the role that gender plays in influencing not only our own perceptions and behavior, but also others’ perceptions of and behavior toward us. Her research explores the effects of gender in a variety of applied contexts, including sports, health, communication, and sexuality. Giuliano has published 37 articles in peer-reviewed journals, 28 of which include 64 undergraduate student co-authors. Mentoring students through research is Giuliano’s passion, and she is proud that her students have served as first author on 23 articles and that 11 of her students have earned national paper competition awards.
