"Don't become a mere recorder of facts, but try to penetrate the mystery of their origin."
Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936)
Research interests
Social psychology from an evolutionary perspective
How do we perceive others--what beliefs do we form about the threats and opportunities they pose for us? How do we feel and then act toward these others, based on these threat and opportunity perceptions?
Research projects
Ongoing projects
Stereotypes, prejudices, and discrimination
How are they related? How can two people hold the same stereotype about a group, but completely opposite prejudices and discriminatory inclinations?
Affordance testing
What do we do when we need to find out a person's characteristics but can't observe? We test them.
Social exclusion
Why do we exclude others?
