Kai J. Jonas
My current research focuses on automatic behavior, the impact of self-regulation and cognitive processes on prejudice, social discrimination, and also on prosocial behavior. In addition, I have also been conducting research on the development and evaluation of moral courage training programs, as well as being involved in their implementation.
