Biography

I am a social psychologist and my research focuses on three topics: emotion, attitudes, and social identity. I am interested in the role emotion plays in interpersonal and intergroup relations, and especially in the social functions of emotion. My attitude research is mainly concerned with the impact of attitudes on health-related and safety-related behaviour. Finally, I am interested in the role played by social identity in intergroup conflict and cooperation. Other research helps to understand how social values get translated into action. This research is being undertaken in collaboration with colleagues in the Values in Action (ViA) Centre, at Cardiff University.
