Michael Nicholas Stagnaro
I am a Research Scientist at MIT Sloan and a Research Fellow at Stanford University PACS. My work focuses on several topics, including understanding how strongly held beliefs are formed and changed, the underlying cognition of ideologies, as well as cooperation and conflict between individuals and groups. I am also interested in experimental methodology and the improvement of social science research overall.
I received my Ph.D. in Psychology from Yale University and a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Comparative Religion from the University of San Francisco.
