Political Learning and
Intergroup Dynamics
About Us
Welcome to the Political Learning and Intergroup Dynamics (P.L.A.I.D.) Lab. We conduct research on a varied but inter-related set of topics including: racial and ethnic politics, inter-group dynamics of marginalized populations, group boundaries, political action on behalf of others, and the types of learning that inform all of the above sets of perceptions and behaviors.
Our Team.
In our lab, research assistants are integral contributors at each step of the research process. From formulating research questions, selecting methodological approaches, collecting and analyzing data, to disseminating findings, our research assistants are actively engaged at every step.
