I'm a social psychologist working on informal segregation and intergroup contact. I mostly do multilevel analyses to study contextual effects of segregation in cities, schools or universities, and I'm also running a project studying actual conversations between members of different groups vs. people from the same social group.

As someone who is particularly interested in language and its common usage, I'd like to see how the cultural idiosyncrasies of groups using the same base language affect communication between those groups. I'd also be interested in seeing how those idiosyncrasies are related to informal segregation.

More of us. I would have never expected that.

Although, I hope not all social psychologists are/become a shipwreck.

Nice to see, have a nice day.
