University of Washington Profile

Cheryan will conduct three studies that investigate the effects of anti-American stereotypes on the well-being of U.S. immigrant groups. Using data from her university lab, she will review the state of psychological research on anti-American stereotypes, the health consequences of these stereotypes on immigrants, and the varying level of vulnerability to anti-American stereotypes among different generations.
