This $373,108 National Science Foundation Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences project grant to the University of California, Santa Barbara will support research examining how social identity threat differentially influences emotional reactions and motivations in response to prejudice. Over a three-year period from October 2022 to September 2025, the grantee will conduct a series of studies combining self-report measures and brain imaging methods to assess emotions and motivations when individuals observe prejudiced behavior targeting others' social identities.
