About me
My research examines the reciprocal influence between emotion and culture, especially the automatic processes that govern this influence (e.g., Weisbuch & Ambady, 2008, 2009; Weisbuch, Mendes, Seery, & Blascovich, 2005). More generally, I am interested in the role of affect and emotion in social life (Weisbuch & Mackie, 2009; Weisbuch, Mackie, & Garcia-Marques, 2003; Weisbuch, Sinclair, Skorinko, & Eccleston, 2009; Weisbuch, Slepian, Clarke, Ambady, & Veenstra-Vander Weele, in press). I assess affect and its influence via nonverbal behavior, reaction-times, psychophysiology, and eye-tracking. For further information, please see my vita. I am currently supported by a National Institute of Health National Research Service Award.

 

 

People automatically "catch" the emotions of ingroup members but exhibit opposing responses to the emotions of outgroup members. This graph depicts Black and White participants affective responses to Black and White facial expressions.
