Research interests

My fundamental research interests are related to social identity, motivated identity construction processes and individual-level predictors of social-political beliefs, attitudes and behaviours.

I’ve been applying these to several applicated domains:

• populism (subject of my doctoral dissertation),
• prosocial behaviour and public health (blood donation & Covid-19 pandemic),
• intergroup bias and stereotypes related to specific regional accents (Sardinian),
• cross-cultural research

Please, read my CV to have an updated overview of my scientific production and research projects.
