Much of my research examines how both intragroup and intergroup processes influence behavior. Within these contexts, I am particularly interested in understanding:
(1) Factors responsible for increased task motivation within and between groups
(2) Trust development and repair within and between groups
(3) How moods and emotions influence interpersonal and intergroup behavior. |
