Scott Neufeld

Interests:  I am a PhD student in the social psychology program (started Jan. 2017) at SFU working with Michael Schmitt. I received my BA in Honours Psychology from McGill University, and my MA from SFU. I am generally interested in research within the "social identity approach" that investigates collective resistance to oppression, collective empowerment, Aboriginal identity, and colonialism (among many other things), and also have a keen interest in critical research and critical research methods. My Master's research was a qualitative investigation of parents' perceptions of Vancouver's new Aboriginal Focus School (www.tinyurl.com/afsreport). I am interested in qualitative methods, community based research, and critical participatory action research.

Interests:  I am a PhD student in Social Psychology. I received my BA in Psychology from The Pennsylvania State University and my MA from Simon Fraser University. My research  investigates the experiences of individuals who identify as multiracial and the potential psychological and social consequences of this identity. I am currently studying how multiracials' experiences with discrimination and sense of multiracial identification impact their psychological well-being. I am also interested in perceivers' categorization and subsequent judgments of multiracial targets.
