about the researcher

Idalia Maciel, M.S.

Principal Investigator

My name is Idalia Maciel (she/her/ella). I identify as a queer Latina ​non-monogamous woman with brown skin. I am a doctoral ​candidate in Psychology at the University of Michigan. I received a ​B.A. in Psychology from the University of North Texas, an M.S. in ​Psychological Sciences from The University of Texas at Dallas, and ​an M.S. in Psychology from the University of Michigan.


I am a feminist sex researcher with an intersectional and pleasure-​centered approach. My work focuses on individuals who identify as ​women, queer, and/or non-monogamous. I am particularly ​interested in how marginalized folks navigate stigmatization while ​seeking authentic sexual and relational expression.


This study is part of my dissertation research to complete my PhD ​and is funded by the Rackham Graduate School at the University of ​Michigan and the Polyamory Foundation.
