Group Processes

Research in the various factors that influence the effectiveness of group and team functioning.  Special focus in group creativity or the ability of groups to generate novel ideas.

Personality and Social Interaction

Research in the Social Interaction Lab is focused on how personality differences affect social interaction. We also study cognitive aspects of social interaction such as intersubjectivity and empathic accuracy.

Personality and Social Behavior Center

Research in individual differences and the ways they moderate social behavior in children, adolescents and young adults and research into the development of effortful control.

Intergroup Relations

Our research investigates the various ways in which social group membership (political affiliations, nationality, religion, sports teams, etc.) affects cognition, emotion, attitudes, and behavior. General research topics include intergroup bias, prejudice, and stereotyping.
