My current research examines differences between implicit and explicit attitudes and stereotypes, stereotype maintenance processes (including the mechanisms underlying social sanctions for counterstereotypic behavior), and media effects on attitudes, stereotypes, and behavior.
In 1994, I was awarded the Gordon Allport Intergroup Relations Prize (with Eugene Borgida) for research examining the effects of sexist advertising on men's behavior toward female job applicants.
