My students and I study the interplay of cognition, emotion, and motivation. This interest leads us to investigate topics such as anger; attitude formation, maintenance, and change; the antecedents and consequences of discrepancies between cognitions; the role of emotion and motivation in aggressive and prosocial behavior; and self-regulatory and defensive processes. |
