I seek to further explore (1) how different implicit and explicit self-concepts such as identities, self-worth, self-esteem, self-transcendence, and self-compassion affect a person’s tendency toward prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination; (2) different methodologies and measures to capture those concepts; (3) how influences on these cognitive concepts could exacerbate or reduce biases and expression of those biases; and (4) what interventions could be created and implemented to reconcile interpersonal and intergroup conflicts.
