Carla Marquez earned her BA in Psychology with a minor in Criminology from California State University, Fresno. She continued at CSU, Fresno in the MA program in Experimental Psychology while simultaneously taking courses in the MA program in Criminology. While at CSU, Fresno her research surrounded social/cognitive issues such as eyewitness testimony (specifically the cross race effect) as well as unrealistic optimism, wishful thinking, and directed forgetting. Carla continued with her research on eyewitness testimony at the CUNY Graduate Center in the Ph.D. Program in Social-Personality Psychology, focussing on moral reasoning and children. Her current research interests focus on the "invisible punishments/collateral consequences" of imprisonment from the perspective of those experiencing the transition. Her work utilizes both qualitative and quantitative methods. Her dissertation examines the parole process in New York State, specifically for violent offenders. She also serves as part of a research group comprised of formerly incarcerated persons which utilizes participatory action research methods to explore the many issues facing this population in New York. Carla taught at Lehman College for 4 years, as well as other CUNY colleges including Medgar Evers and BMCC. She also spent the last year as a full-time faculty member in the Department of Psychology at Fresno Pacific University in California. She has taught various courses including Introduction to Psychology, Social Psychology, Psychology and Law, Statistics, Experimental Psychology, and Personality Psychology. She has returned to New York this year to join the Department of Psychology as an Assistant Professor (substitute line) at John Jay College where she also taught Psychology and Law as an adjunct lecturer in past years.
