As a prejudice researcher, I can't stop staring at this image.

"passenger...was duct-taped to his seat following an alleged outburst including racial and homophobic slurs"
US passenger duct-taped to plane seat says: ‘I don’t remember any of it’
After being read charges, Layne Lundeen said: ‘I assaulted a police officer? Is that what it says? I don’t have my glasses’

Long posited: intergroup competition ==> prejudice.

This new meta-analysis finds it boosts intragroup cooperation (g = .67).

Which is another interesting angle.

New question: Is this the "true process"? Or do both occur?

Students, this is a top lab for #PrejudiceResearch. A great opportunity for you to check out.
📣 I’m considering PhD students for Fall 2027!

We study how our identities shape the way we see ourselves, how others see us, and how we interact across group boundaries. Our work spans race, gender, multiracial experiences, and intergroup contact with kids and adults.

New research by @mv1691.bsky.social @ericdknowles.bsky.social & Napier

... finds that Latinos told Whites will accept them within "White" then show higher racism & conservatism.

Essentially pulling ladder up after themselves.

Why do the highly religious hold exceptional views?

We test two explanations:
✅ Religious-ideology approach (fundamentalism)
✅ Loss-of-privileges approach (perceived disadvantage)

Our findings show that prejudice can arise from both learned ideology and lost privileges.

People working in intergroup relations raise your hand!! I think it's so cool to have a specialized feed for this, I am loving it. I am a social neuroscientists and I am working in intergroup hostility. I would love to make contact with other researchers in the field. #prejudiceresearch

🚨 New preprint!

We reviewed 263 studies on racial & ethnic prejudice measures. Most are psychometrically weak and conceptually narrow. Only 4% meet high-quality standards. We call for rigorous, theory-driven, culturally sensitive tools.

New study finds experimental perspective taking on prejudice reduction has some limits (and works less well on highly prejudiced people)
