    Roy Goodwin D'Andrade is one of the founders of the theory of cognitive anthropo logy.

    Born in New Jersey, D'Andrade matriculated at Rutgers University but left to ful fill his military service. He completed his undergraduate studies at the Univers ity of Connecticut. He then studied in the Department of Social Relations at Har vard, from which he received his PhD in Social Anthropology. He taught at Stanfo rd University from 1962-1969. He then moved to the University of California, San Diego, where he was professor of Anthropology until 2003 and served as departme nt chair for three separate terms. He now teaches in the Anthropology department at the University of Connecticut. His research interests have ranged widely, including African-American family str ucture, personality, color perception, and mathematical models for reconstructin g mitochondrial lineages. A unifying theme in much of his work, however, is the problem of identifying and describing cultural models (also known as folk models , or the often implicit, culturally shared ways that people assume the world wor ks); in recent years he is particularly concerned with conceptualizing cultural models through schema theory. In 2002 D'Andrade was awarded the NAS Award for Sc ientific Reviewing from the National Academy of Sciences.[1] Contents 1 2 3 4 Interlocutors References Select Publications External links
