Paul Rozin (born 1936[1]) is a psychology professor at the University of Pennsylvania. His current work focuses on the psychological, cultural, and biological determinants of human food choice.
Rozin earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Chicago in 1956 and doctoral degrees in biology and psychology from Harvard University in 1961. In 1963 he joined the psychology department at the University of Pennsylvania where in 1997 he was named the Edmund J. and Louise W. Kahn Professor. He also serves as co-director of the school's Solomon Asch Center for the Study of Ethnopolitical Conflict.
His current teaching and research interests include: acquisition of likes and dislikes for foods, nature and development of the magical belief in contagion, cultural evolution of disgust, ambivalence to animal foods, lay conception of risk of infection and toxic effects of foods, interaction of moral and health factors in concerns about risks, relation between people's desires to have desires and their actual desires (including the problem of internalization), acquisition of culture, nature of cuisine and cultural evolution, and psychological responses to recycled water.
Paul Rozin is currently teaching Introductory Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania.[2]
