Work in Progress
THE SHORT VERSION
My current work addresses issues in scientific integrity/better practices, stereotypes&prejudice, bias, and political radicalization. These might seem completely different but, to me, they are not. Political biases distort social psychology much like stereotypes and expectancies sometimes distort judgments. Also, politics is a great arena for studying stereotypes because people are usually quite ready to tell you what they think about the “other” side (not always true with demographic groups). Last, the politics of social psychologists seems to distort the conclusions the field routinely reaches about stereotypes and prejudice. Got your attention?
