I have two main lines of research in the area of prejudice and stereotyping. My first line of research examines how targets are perceived when confronting prejudice, particularly when prejudice is benevolent. In this research, I am interested in investigating how women can effectively confront benevolent forms of sexism (e.g., paternalistic or condescending attitudes). In a second line of research, I am investigating how racial stereotypes may influence how sexism is expressed toward and experienced by women of colour.
