By investigating and identifying strategies to ameliorate the aversive effects of ostracism, this research will permit exciting advances that will extend existing conceptual models in the ostracism literature. Further, given the prevalence of ostracism across societal, occupational and community domains, these studies will yield outcomes with significant and far-reaching practical implications. By applying rigorous experimental methodologies to answer theoretically driven questions about the impact of ostracism, these studies represent the interface of empirically sound and clinically and socially-oriented experimental research.
