Über den Autor

Kathleen Malley-Morrison is professor of psychology in the Human Development Program, Boston University. Her undergraduate major at Swarthmore College was history, and her graduate degree from Boston University was in Special Education. During her last two years of graduate school she focused primarily on developmental psychology, and her dissertation was a developmental analysis of cognitive ability and cognitive style from kindergarten through the eighth grade. She has been a member of the Psychology Department at Boston University since 1970. In recent years, Malley-Morrison's research and publications have focused primarily on international perspectives on state-sponsored violence and peace. As leader of an international consortium of researchers (the Group on International Perspectives on Governmental Aggression and Peace; GIPGAP), she led the development of the Personal and Institutional Rights to Aggression and Peace Survey (PAIRTAPS), which has been administered in more than 40 different countries, with participants from every continent except Antarctica. Chapters focusing on survey findings from each of 40 countries in which the survey was administered were published in a four volume series on State Violence and the Right to Peace for Praeger Security International, published in 2009.
