We have hired a new research assistant, Maya. Maya will mainly work with the incel project but also with the other projects.
Maya has a MSc in applied social psychology from Groningen University, The Netherlands. Her main area of interest lies within social and cultural dynamics. More specifically, she has studied social grounding, and how social norms are formed and maintained regarding sexual behavior and beliefs. Additionally, she is interested in group polarization and radicalization processes, and aims to clarify why some people come to hold extremist and hostile views about certain matters or other people.
