Ian M. Handley, Ph.D.


Research Interests    

  • Broadly, my research interests span social cognition. My research primarily falls within the domains of affect in social cognition and attitudes and persuasion. I have also conducted research, insofar as these topics have either informed my primary areas of research or fulfilled a scientific curiosity, on affective expectations, automaticity and nonconscious processes, counterfactual thinking, dispositional hypnotizability, dispositional optimism, goal activation, impression formation, the mere exposure effect, perceptions of law and negative self-attributions, salience effects in videotaped confessions, and the self-serving bias.
