Social & Personality faculty explore how individuals perceive, experience, and behave in everyday social contexts. Their research focuses particularly on human interpretation of social environments, with specialized studies in areas like decision-making processes, causal attribution, self-perception, emotional states, and social biases. Common research themes examine the accuracy of self and social judgments, the mechanisms behind decision formation, unconscious and emotional influences on choices, and the psychological foundations of moral evaluation regarding actions and behavioral patterns.
