About Me

Ba in psychology,  2002, Stockholm University, Sweden

Msc in psychology, 2003, Stockholm University, Sweden

PhD in psychology, 2008, Uppsala University, Sweden

 In 2009 I received a grant from the Swedish Research Council for a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship at the Australian National University to work with Katherine Reynolds on a project entitled: Self-categorization as an Explanation of the Relationship between Big-five Personality and Prejudice. This project investigates how individuals' social identities may affect the relationship between personality and prejudice, and ideological attitudes like right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation.
