Associate Professor, Sociology Justine E. Tinkler is an Associate Professor of Sociology. She received a Ph.D. in Sociology from Stanford University in 2007. Her research is unified by an interest in examining the micro-level processes that create and reinforce gender and race inequality in both formal and informal institutions of social control. She employs experimental, survey-based, and qualitative research methods to provide empirical evidence for advancing theory in social psychology, law and inequality. Dr. Tinkler’s current projects include studies of people’s reactions to the enforcement (formal and informal) of sexual misconduct laws and the role of gender and race bias in the workplace.
