Who wants to remember Covid-19? Social identification and collective remembering-imagining system predict support for pandemic commemorations
350) of US young adults' support for commemorating COVID-19. Participants completed measures of identification with all humanity (IWAH), listed significant world events that happened since 1918 and events they anticipate happening by 2128, and indicated their support for investing public funds to commemorate COVID-19. IWAH was a significant predictor of support for commemorating COVID-19. Further, remembering natural disasters predicted anticipat…
Pandemics past
Collective memories support collective identities and provide lessons for group members to manage present challenges. Three surveys (total N = 1,137) tested whether U.S. nationals who strongly identify with all humanity (IWAH) were more interested in learning about pandemics in history as events that affected the whole world (Study 1) and more knowledgeable about past pandemics (Studies 2a and 2b). Stronger IWAH predicted greater interest in lear…

Dynamic stereotypes of African, Latinx, and White Americans
Similar to women, African and Latinx Americans perceived significant gains in agentic traits of their group members from the past to the present.

The Importance of Knowing your History
Getting Turks to talk about the past
History as a Resource
Two studies examined the effects of exposure to historical narratives about group resilience on the intellectual performance of two groups negatively stereotyped for their abilities in academic domains: African Americans in verbal ability, and women in mathematics. In both studies, participants who were exposed to a narrative about their group's historical resilience in the domain of the stereotype performed better on an intellectual test as thei…
Equality for all? White Americans’ willingness to address inequality with Asian and African Americans
White Americans' willingness to engage in dialogues about intergroup commonalities and power inequalities with Asian and African Americans were examined in two experiments. Because Whites perceive that African Americans experience greater discrimination than do Asian Americans, we predicted that they would be more willing to engage in dialogues that would interrogate injustice and inequality with them. We also explored the role of common in-group…
Collective memory as identity content after ethnic conflict
Difficult dialogs
Asymmetrical effects of contact between minority groups
Recent meta-analyses of intergroup contact research revealed that majority members' attitudes toward minorities are improved to a greater degree by contact compared to those of minority members (Tropp & Pettigrew, 2005). While previous research focused on contact between majority and minority groups, this study explored effects of intergroup contact between two minority groups that differ in status: Black and Asian college students. Because of di…
Becoming American
Educational and occupational data suggest that second-generation West Indian immigrants have less favorable outcomes than their first-generation counterparts, who are typically shown to outperform comparison groups of African Americans. In two studies, we explore the social psychological process of stereotype threat as it differentially affects the performance of first-and second-generation West Indian students. An initial questionnaire study of …
Exploring dual identification among Muslim‐American emerging adults
This mixed methods study explored dual identification among Muslim-American emerging adults of immigrant origin. A closer look was taken at the relationship between American and Muslim identifications and how this relationship was influenced by experiences of discrimination, acculturative and religious practices, and whether it varied by gender. Data were gathered from 97 Muslim Americans (ages 18-25) who completed a survey and produced identity …
Ideologies of Diversity and Inequality
Ideological positions regarding social diversity and status inequality are examined as predictors of people's willingness to engage in collective action. Using social dominance theory and social identity theory, we hypothesized that the relationships between ideology, ethnic identification, and orientation toward collective action will vary depending on the position of one's group. Comparisons were made between four U.S. groups: White natives, Wh…
