What lies beyond mere tolerance of the "other"? My research investigates positive intergroup attitudes: How they arise, how they work, and how they shape the ways people think, feel, and behave. In all these my work shows they can be different from and independent of the frequently studied negative intergroup attitudes. To date, this research has taken three forms, the study of: (a) positive stereotypes, (b) allophilia and the Two-Dimensional Model of Intergroup Attitudes (TDMIA), and (c) the effects of leadership on positive intergroup relations (intergroup leadership).
