Course Information
Description
This lab course explores identity, language, and group dynamics in social and political life. Ongoing projects in the lab use a range of research methods, including surveys, experiments, and text analysis, to investigate several key questions: How do people express their social and group identities in conversation? How do identity processes and group dynamics shape political speech and action? How do large-scale crises affect group dynamics? Each undergraduate student will contribute to one or more ongoing projects and work closely with a graduate or postdoctoral mentor. Students will participate in research activities including study design, data collection and analysis, and the interpretation of results.
