Fiona Lee

Fiona Lee explores how culture, ethnicity and race affect our values and behaviors. She also explores the extent to which cultural differences are malleable. Her research further addresses people’s cultural stereotypes of themselves and of others. Many cultural and ethnic groups are subject to both positive and negative stereotypes. These stereotypes can come from outside the group, but also from members within the group. She studies the situations where these stereotypes can help or harm the advancement of different social groups, and how these stereotypes impact intergroup relationships.
