Presented By: Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD)
RCGD Fall Seminar Series: Psychological Diversity across the Globe (Kickoff)
Kickoff reception
Join us at ISR for a reception kicking off RCGD's fall Group Dynamics Seminar Series, "Psychological Diversity across the Globe," organized by Shinobu Kitayama and Catherine Thomas.
The reception will include brief presentations on the topic and the series.
Do our cultural contexts influence our psychology and behavior — and if so, how? In this RCGD series, we delve into the socio-ecological, histo-cultural, and economic dynamics shaping the diversity of selfhood and its associated cognitive, emotional, and motivational processes. We go beyond the traditional East and West focus to include a wide range of cultural groups. This series will elucidate the implications of psychological diversity across the globe for policies in international relations, politics, economics, business, immigration, and other relevant domains.
In person: ISR Thompson 1430
About the Group Dynamics Seminar Series:
The Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology,” “Racism and Discrimination,” “Social Media,” and “New Directions in Social Psychology.”
