معرفی
Ludwin Molina is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Kansas, researching how group identities (e.g., ethnicity, nationality) and power asymmetries shape intergroup relations with emphasis on national unity-diversity tensions.
His primary research interests include:
- Intergroup relations
- National identity
- Diversity
- Immigration
- Power and group hierarchy
- Compensatory control
- Race and sports
- Contact conditions
He conducts "full circle" intergroup research incorporating both majority and minority group perspectives. Recent publications (2017-2023) demonstrate sustained focus on immigration policy, microaggressions, and decolonizing psychology, with recurring themes of discrimination's psychological impact and national identity's role in shaping immigration attitudes—though one 2018 medical imaging article represents an outlier in his otherwise social psychology-oriented output.
