Prejudice and the extremist violence that arises from it are typically explained either by the psychopathology of individual perpetrators, or by their membership of extremist groups. This project will seek to reconcile these competing explanations and resolve this impasse that has obstructed progress in combating prejudice. This project develops a new framework specifying causal and reciprocal links between the novel concept of thwarted identity, psychopathology, ideology, and prejudice. Expected outcomes are new policy solutions and novel targets for interventions to reduce prejudice and extremist violence, which will deliver significant benefit by addressing these pernicious social problems.

偏见和由此产生的极端主义暴力通常由个别肇事者的心理病理学或极端主义团体的成员来解释。该项目将寻求调和这些相互竞争的解释，并解决这种阻碍打击偏见进展的这种僵局。该项目开发了一个新的框架，指定了挫败身份，心理病理学，意识形态和偏见的新颖概念之间的因果关系和相互联系。预期的结果是新的政策解决方案和新颖的干预措施，以减少偏见和极端主义暴力，这将通过解决这些有害的社会问题来带来巨大的收益。
