About
I am Xijing Wang (王蹊径)
how to pronounce my name:
(Xijing--"she" for "Xi" and "ging" for "jing")
​
​
As a social psychologist, I mostly study human darkness. This, however, does not make me a pessimist.
My ultimate goal is to use my research to shed light on how to achieve better human relationships and social interactions.
​
​
This is meant to demonstrate that a human can (sometimes) be perceived and treated as an object. But I have realized that the objectified version of me is made too cute for this purpose.
