How do gendered beliefs impact reactions to terrorism?
Masculine honor ideology and Neosexism are correlated with support for torture of suspected terrorists, but provoke differing emotional responses.

A huge loss not just for research, but also for the police and citizens worldwide who will lose out on the training, knowledge, and decreased violence this research focuses on.
Today, I received a termination for my National Science Foundation CAREER Grant, which employed a post-doc and many undergraduate research assistants.

It's hard to find the words. NSF just terminated the grant for Journeys, a mentoring workshop that tried to tackle underrepresentation of women in international relations. Future scholarship will be the worse for it. But this photo from our last gathering will motivate me to keep fighting.

I’m new here & thought I'd share a snippet of my work! In this working paper I use a face-to-face survey exp, an original survey and a panel to show that the male migration disrupts the household status quo by creating the routine absence of men leading to the feminization of political engagement.
