Gordon Blaine Moskowitz is a social psychologist and associate professor in the Department of Psychology at Lehigh University working in the field of social cognition. His primary research interest is in judgments which occur with neither the intention of forming an impression nor the awareness that one has done so: the extent to which social inferences are spontaneous. His area of specialty is Social cognition.

Moskowitz was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1963 and attended McGill University (B.Sc 1984) and New York University (Ph.D. 1993).

the nature of stereotyping and the question of how people can prevent stereotypic thoughts from occurring or, if they do occur, prevent stereotypic thinking from influencing their evaluations of and actions toward others.

the "snap judgments" made when hearing about, meeting, or observing others; the "automaticity" of human inferential processes and the extent to which goals and motives can be equally "automatic."

the extent to which people are persuaded or influenced by minority messengers: the cognitive economy which directs initial thoughts toward minorities and how motives which instigate more elaborate thought processes lead to greater minority influence.

a motive termed "the need for structure" and how the desire to control, understand, and structure the events and people which make up one's social world affects the way in which one perceives and acts.
