About Us

We represent the field of social psychology in research and teaching. The main focus of our research is the investigation of cognitive processes that underlie social phenomena. In particular, we investigate the perception of social variability and discrimination, the construction of stereotypes and the determinants of moral judgements. We also develop social psychological methods and paradigms. The research group is headed by Prof. Dr. Roland Deutsch.

Teaching in Winter 2025/26

The Social Psychology group offers a variety of courses in the winter semester 2025/26.
