At the social psychology chair, we study the antecedents and consequences of ambivalence and conflict on (social) decision-making and information processing. We have a particular interest in social behavior and trust, examining how social behavior can cause ambivalence, and how expressing ambivalence influences trust behavior.  We also examine organizational processes, such as leaders and employee relationships and well-being. Finally, we are interested in understanding under what conditions ambivalence leads to positive outcomes like creativity and reduced bias. To answer these questions, we use a variety of methods and tools, including mouse-tracking, surveys, economic games, and computational modelling.
