WE-search Lab

at New York University is directed by Dr. Ashwini Ashokkumar.

We use an array of methods including language analysis to answer questions related to the psychology of "we": 

• How do our identities shape, and get shaped by, our behaviors?

• What are the meanings and narratives around our sense of "we"?

• How are our identities linked to how we tackle social problems?

• How do we signal our social identities on social media?

• How does identity politics shape democracy?
