As a social psychologist, she works in the area of group processes. Her scholarly interests pertain specifically to processes of justice, legitimacy, and emotions. She has coedited a volume “Justice” in the Advances in Group Processes series and is coauthor (with Cathryn Johnson) of the text, Individuals, Interaction, and Inequality. Her 60 publications address basic issues regarding perceptions of and responses to injustice and factors affecting perceptions of leader legitimacy; more applied work examines issues of environmental justice and justice processes within schools.

Long Doan is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology and Director of the Group Processes Laboratory at the University of Maryland. Doan is broadly interested in how various social psychological processes motivate behavior and explain patterns of inequality. In particular, Doan is interested in the intersections of sexuality, gender, and race. His work examines how seemingly subtle differences in evaluations of individuals based on their social characteristics lead to larger, more concrete implications, such as the acceptance or denial of legal rights or decisions related to hiring. His recent publications have appeared in the American Sociological Review, Social Problems, Journal of Marriage and Family, and Sociological Methodology. He has received the Lupia-Mutz Award for Outstanding Publication and paper awards from the ASA’s Sex and Gender, Social Psychology, and Emotions sections.
