Existential Psychology
- How the concept and construct of death changes across groups (e.g. religious individuals and atheists).
- How the way we treat and view death as a society impacts other areas of our society (e.g. how we treat disabled individuals).
- Differences in death anxiety and perception of death in different social groups (religions, sexual orientations, etc.)
- Integration of existential topics with other areas of psychology, including relationships between things such as death anxiety and prejudice.
Prejudice/Bias
- Differences and unique aspects of prejudice in different marginalized groups, particularly sexual orientations (how does prejudice towards asexual individuals differ from prejudice towards lesbians, etc).
- Intergroup relations research investigating cooperation, community, and policy.
- Interventions for understanding and reducing prejudice.
LGBTQ+ Topics
- Investigating areas in psychology research that have little to no research on marginalized groups, especially LGBTQ+ individuals.
- General overlapping of LGBTQ+ topics in existential research and research on prejudice/bias
