I'm a social psychologist, best known for my work on social identity and intergroup relations, including research on understanding and reducing prejudice and stereotyping. My other research interests include sexism, immigration, social class, social exclusion, and mental health. I've also published metascientific work on issues connected with the replication crisis in science such as preregistration, multiple testing, significance testing, and hypothesising after the results are known (HARKing).
