Diane Mackie
My research spans two distinctly different domains: intergroup relations (focusing on the affective, cognitive, and motivational processes by which group memberships influence people's thoughts, feelings, and behavior) and social influence (focusing on the affective, cognitive, and motivational processes by which peoples' attitudes and behavior are changed). Ongoing work in my lab includes, for example, projects on the role of familiarity, affect, and emotion in persuasion; the impact of prior exposure to persuasive sources; the similarities and differences between attitudes, norms, self-persuasion and social persuasion; the nature of social emotions and their role in prejudice and discrimination; and the role of ingroup identification and commitment in generating group emotions, justifying ingroup actions, and explaining outgroup derogation.
