Professor Branscombe's current research addresses a variety of issues concerning Intergroup Relations from a Social Identity perspective. How people think about groups that have a history of victimization, when and why privileged groups may feel collective guilt for their past harm doing, and the consequences of experiencing discrimination for psychological well-being have been key topics investigated.
