Professor Dimitri Kelly joined the 麻豆区 faculty in 2013. His academic interests lie in American politics with a focus on political behavior, media and politics, political psychology, and elections. Dr. Kelly has received funding from the National Science Foundation for his ongoing research exploring cognitive responses to biased news and the effects of partisan news media on political polarization. More generally, his research agenda focuses on citizens connection to politics, with emphasis on the intermediary role of the media, and the public distribution of political information, the decision to participate in politics, and the degree of ideological constraint and polarization in society. He is passionate about teaching and is currently planning new courses in Political Communication, The American Presidency, and Politics and Inequality, as well as a January Term travel course to Brazil.
