Prejudice among egalitarians
Many domains of research suggest that high favourability to social power and low favourability to egalitarian ideals predict more prejudice against other groups. In the present article, we describe theory and evidence suggesting...

The source attribution effect:
We tested whether mere source attribution is sufficient to cause polarization between groups, even on consensual non-divisive positions. Across four studies (N = 2,182), using samples from Germany, the UK, and the USA, agreement...

Measured and manipulated effects of value similarity on prejudice and well-being
We review recent research investigating the effect of shared human values on personal and social outcomes. Using more precise methods than past research, cross-sectional and experimental evidence suggests that well-being and...

Affective and cognitive orientations in group perception
Three studies examined the role of Need for Affect (NFA) and Need for Cognition (NFC) in intergroup perception. We hypothesized that NFA predicts a preference for stereotypically warm groups over stereotypically cold groups...

The role of Need for Affect and Need for Cognition in self-evaluation
The primary aim of this study was to investigate whether individual differences in affective and cognitive orientation predict the relative importance of warmth-related and competence-related traits in self-evaluation. 99...

Mapping the structure of human values through conceptual representations
The present research provides the first direct examination of human values through concept categorization tasks that entail judging the meaning of values. Seven studies containing data from nine samples (N = 1,086) in two...

Anti-Immigrant Prejudice
Although human values and value dissimilarity play pivotal roles in the prejudice
literature, there remain important gaps in our understanding. To address these gaps, we recruited three British samples (N=350) and presented...

Seeing and Treating the Out-group Like Family
Transference effects occur when our impressions are guided by our mental representations of significant others. For instance, if a target resembles an individual’s significant other, then that person’s feelings toward their...

Neural evidence of motivational conflict between social values
Motivational interdependence is an organizing principle in Schwartz’s circumplex model of social values, which has received abundant cross-cultural support. We used fMRI to test whether motivational relations between social...
