Prejudice and the extremist violence that arises from it are typically explained either by the psychopathology of individual perpetrators, or by their membership of extremist groups. This project will seek to reconcile these competing explanations and resolve this impasse that has obstructed progress in combating prejudice. This project develops a new framework specifying causal and reciprocal links between the novel concept of thwarted identity, psychopathology, ideology, and prejudice. Expected outcomes are new policy solutions and novel targets for interventions to reduce prejudice and extremist violence, which will deliver significant benefit by addressing these pernicious social problems.

犯罪行为和由此产生的极端主义暴力行为通常可以用犯罪者个人的精神病理学或他们是极端主义团体的成员来解释。本项目将寻求调和这些相互矛盾的解释，并解决阻碍在消除偏见方面取得进展的这一僵局。这个项目开发了一个新的框架，指定之间的因果关系和相互联系的挫折身份，精神病理学，意识形态和偏见的新概念。预期成果是新的政策解决方案和新的干预目标，以减少偏见和极端主义暴力，这将通过解决这些有害的社会问题带来重大利益。
