My research explores how people form and express intergroup bias in attitudes and behavior. I investigate how such bias is presented both explicitly, when mental processes are more controlled, and implicitly, when mental processes are more automatic and uncontrolled. I study this question across many social domains, such as race, politics, religion, age, sexual orientation, and physical attractiveness. Through this work, I seek to discover how intergroup bias can be best conceptualized, measured, and reduced. In particular, I examine these issues by using large, diverse samples and applying novel methodologies.
