Colleen Ganley is an assistant professor of developmental psychology and is in the Florida Center for Research in STEM in the Learning Systems Institute at Florida State University. Her research focuses on the social, cognitive, and attitudinal factors related to math learning with a specific interest in gender and income-level differences. Her work investigates factors such as teacher biases, teacher and student math anxieties/attitudes, stereotype threat, working memory, and spatial skills as potential malleable factors that may be related to mathematics achievement. She is especially interested in learning in areas of mathematics that require spatial thinking, such as geometry and measurement. She also explores factors related to gender differences in students’ math- and science-related career choices.
