Social Interaction Lab
Research Focus
The experimental research conducted at the Social Interaction Lab is broadly centered on the antecedents and consequences of social exclusion, stereotyping, social categorization, and pro/anti-social behavior. We address basic and applied research questions such as (1) how individuals and groups deal with different forms of social exclusion, (2) how the negative impact of social exclusion/stigmatization can be mitigated, and (3) which factors facilitate pro- and hinder antisocial behavior.
