PREJUDICE AWARENESS AND REDUCTION (PAR) LAB

More information coming soon!

I adopt a holistic approach to understanding prejudice and discrimination by looking at two sides of the coin. On the one side, I study the predictors of prejudice and discrimination. On the other side, I explore the consequences for marginalized targets of prejudice and discrimination.

For instance, I have explored the roles of sexually objectifying media and ideologies as predictors or causes of bias against women. I have also explored consequences for targets of prejudice, such as poorer well-being, skin bleaching, and in-group discrimination.

Understanding both sides of the coin, my research has started to delve into prejudice-reduction interventions. Ultimately, my goal is to help reduce prejudice and discrimination and, in turn, increase the well-being of marginalized populations.
