ELISABETH R. SILVER

Doctoral Student and National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow in Industrial/Organizational Psychology at Rice University

ABOUT

I am a fourth-year doctoral student and National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellow in Industrial/Organizational Psychology at Rice University. I earned my B.S. from the University of Michigan (2018) and an M.A. from Rice University (2022). My research broadly focuses on diversity and discrimination, with emphases on (1) resistance to equity-enhancing efforts among people with social and organizational privilege; (2) emerging dimensions of diversity (i.e., neurodiversity), and (3) computational approaches to diversity science. My work has been featured in diverse outlets, including Journal of the American Medical Association-Network Open, Policy Insights from the Behavioral and Brain Sciences, Management Decision, and Sex Roles. My research has been recognized by intramural awards, including the Kenneth R. Laughery Award for Best Master's Thesis in Psychology at Rice (2022) and Best Graduate Essay in Sexuality, Women's, and Gender Studies at Rice (2022). I have also received extramural funding from the NSF's Graduate Research Fellowship Program (awarded 2022).
