About

Hello! My name is Rubi Gonzales and I am a senior studying Psychology at UTEP. I am currently the lab manager for the Legal Decision Lab and I am interested in how social psychological issues impact all areas of the legal system. After graduation I plan on attending graduate school and earning my PhD. My goal is to use my research to help positively affect minority contact with the justice system.
