Research interests |
I am interested in the interplay between social and cognitive processes. I examine how the social hierarchy defined by power, status or membership in a minority or majority group affects attentional control and the individual’s mindset, and how this in turn affects the ways individuals pursue goals (e.g. performance), how they respond to environmental affordances, and how they make judgments. I focus on the ways social hierarchy affects objective behaviour variability, and how this impacts stereotypes. I am also interested in mood, and more generally in the links between motivation, cognition, and behaviour. |
