I am primarily interested in social-cognitive aspects of the structure and change of attitudes and stereotypes, factors in the psychology and prevention of HIV-infection, and the theory and practice of research synthesis (a.k.a. meta-analysis, which amounts to doing empirical history of research phenomena). I also have a strong interest in the history of social psychology. Ongoing projects include (a) an NIMH-supported project, Syntheses of HIV & AIDS Research Project (SHARP), which is a series of meta-analyses evaluating the efficacy of HIV prevention interventions, (b) a series of studies of risky sexual attitudes and behavior, and (c) a series of studies examining attitudes from various competing theoretical perspectives, including prominent judgment/decision making models.
