My primary area of research interest at this time concerns behavior
in social dilemma situations, and specifically justice and
fairness concerns in these intriguing and ubiquitous situations of
social conflict. My students and I are working to understand how
those who have been harmed by defections of other group members
react to these transgression -- when will they settle for
compensatory justice, when will they seek retribution, and when do they
want revenge. I also have a longstanding interest in prosocial
behavior (see Dovidio, Piliavin, Schroeder, & Penner, 2006, The
social psychology of prosocial behavior. Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum.),
and I see the development of informal procedural justice systems as
being a facilitating factor for promoting greater cooperation in
groups.
For prospective students’ information, I will be looking to admit
a new student for the 2008 Fall semester who is interested in
my research on justice and cooperation. Please feel free to
contact me if you have any questions.
