About Courtney

Associate Professor Courtney von Hippel serves in the School of Psychology at the University of Queensland. She earned her Bachelor of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from Ohio State University. Her research program in applied social psychology emphasizes testing and extending theoretical models in real-world contexts. Central to her work is stereotype threat and its consequences, particularly for women navigating male-dominated professions, older workers facing age-related biases, and men in female-dominated fields such as child protection. Von Hippel also explores implicit attitudes within challenging populations, like people who inject drugs, at-risk youth, and those with mental health issues, thereby advancing insights into stigma and the practical utility of implicit measures outside controlled experiments.
