Her research centers on social psychological mechanisms including sexism, stereotyping, and expectation violations. She investigates how individuals perceive and respond to social norm breaches, particularly regarding gender dynamics and intergroup relations. Her work bridges theoretical frameworks with practical measurement development.
Analysis of her publications reveals a progression from qualitative gerontology research (2018) to contemporary experimental work on refugee solidarity (2022) and cutting-edge instrument development for sexism measurement (2024). This trajectory demonstrates increasing methodological sophistication in addressing socially relevant phenomena through controlled experimental paradigms.
Biermann actively contributes to research infrastructure through her role in Graduate College 2271 and the Psychological Diagnostics group, which examines cognitive and social dimensions of psychological assessment. Her collaborative work with the Teige-Mocigemba group emphasizes real-world applications of diagnostic tools in diverse social contexts.
