Gregory Leslie is a political psychologist whose research focuses primarily on race and ethnicity. His research agenda has two main goals. First, he examines how Multiracials—the fastest growing demographic group in the United States—reconcile dual racial group membership and exposure to diverse racial contexts and they construct and express their politics. Second, he leverages Multiracials to make inferences about the downstream consequences of demographic change on racial group boundaries and intergroup conflict. His research employs a wide range of methods such as causal inference, machine learning, spatial analysis, and qualitative/thematic analysis, and he generally works with survey and administrative data (i.e., voter files). He received his MS in Statistics and PhD in Political Science from UCLA and was previously a postdoc at Princeton.
