My research explores the psychological processes that cause individuals to become identified with their social groups, the factors that strengthen vs. weaken the degree of in-group identification, and the consequences that identification can have on the evaluations of self and others. More generally, I investigate issues related to stereotyping and prejudice, inter-group relations, self-esteem, the maintenance of social identities, and interpersonal comparisons.
