Perceptions of the links between racism and sexism
People assume that those who hold sexist beliefs hold racist beliefs, and vice versa. However, past work only investigated hostile sexism, or blatantly negative evaluations of women. Hostile sexism is positively associated with benevolent sexism, or, more subjectively, positive attitudes that serve to keep women in restricted domestic roles.

Understanding Perceptions of Gender Non-Binary People
Take Me Out of the Loop
Three studies examined whether people feel better when self-excluding from group conversations about negative, rather than positive, information and whether people feel worse when included in group conversations about negative, rather than positive, information. Participants ( N = 665) completed a retrospective recall (Study 1) and imagined scenarios (Studies 2 and 3). Participants generally reported feeling worse when they were included in group…

The present study examined the relationship between parasocial relationships (PSRs; one-sided relationships with media figures), PSR characteristics, and empathy. We also examined whether people are biased toward those with PSRs, and whether people higher in empathy are less biased. Participants completed a survey that assessed whether they a) had a PSR, b) their satisfaction with, commitment to, and investment in the PSR, c) their degree of para…
The impact of fleeting exposure to female exemplars of success in STEM
Two studies tested the impact of subtle cues that associate masculinity with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) success on women’s STEM experiences. Study 1 was a field study conducted in a university campus engineering building where photos of graduating classes were displayed. In Study 2, STEM majors viewed a mock website that depicted either exclusively male or mixed-gender STEM students. Across both studies, women report…

Transactive memory is a system for encoding, storing, and retrieving information between people, where each person has knowledge of the other's memory. Through two studies, we assessed whether transactive memory occurs in best friendships ( N = 682). Results showed that transactive memory systems (TMSs) do exist in best friendships. Importantly, stronger TMSs are associated with higher friendship quality (satisfaction and commitment), and their s…
