Research interests |
Generally I am interested in how group membership motivates people's feelings, thoughts, and behaviour. Currently my research focuses on: |
1. Development of intergroup attitudes (i.e., ethnic prejudice and stereotyping) in childhood. |
2. The role of close interpersonal relations regarding development of intergroup attitudes. |
3. The role of social norms regarding intergroup behaviour. |
4. Development and use of eye tracking in social pschological research. |
