Ramona L. Martinez, PhD

I’m a social-personality psychologist and Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at California State University, Long Beach.

As the Primary Investigator of the Goals, Personality, and Social Connection (GPS) lab, I conduct research with collaborators and gifted student researchers on social connection, psychological well-being, and physical well-being. I consider individual and cultural differences in my work and use both qualitative and experimental methods.
