Prejudice research is splitting toward neural and behavioral levels that complement each other
Evidence
What is the forecast? Allport’s legacy will continue to attract research attention because the problems are so urgent, though it may not have the continuing hegemony that it has had in the last decade. Elsewhere (Fiske, 2000), I have predicted more use of neuroimaging and, at the opposite extreme, more focus on actual discriminatory behavior, both of which require understanding prejudiced emotions. The apparent tension between studying the brain and studying social behavior may be illusory as each level of analysis complements the other. — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 353

- QUESTION: Interesting that Fiske predicted (2000) a turn toward actual discriminatory behavior and neuroimaging; worth checking whether these predictions materialized in the following decades.
