Short Bio

Francesca Prati obtained her PhD in Social Psychology at Bologna University (2012) examining the role of multiple categorization in reducing outgroup dehumanization. During her PhD, she spent several periods abroad: at the Kent University (UK) and at the University of Connecticut (USA) deepening the topics of socio-cognitive strategies for reducing prejudice and ideologies such as social dominance, respectively. Later she was a research fellow at the University of Bologna (2013-2017) where she collaborated on several projects on the role of morality at the intergroup level and language as a tool for detecting prejudice. Thanks to a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship she spent a period as research fellow at the University of Oxford (2018-2020) that allowed her to study intergroup contact and collective action from the perspective of ethnic minorities. In 2020 she got RTDb position at the University of Bologna, where she has been working since July 2023 as an associate professor.
