Prof. Boaz Hameiri

I am an Associate Professor at the School for Social and Policy Studies, an affiliate with the School of Psychological Sciences, and the Head of the Program in Conflict Management and Mediation at Tel Aviv University. I received my PhD in social psychology at Tel Aviv University in 2019. Between 2018 and 2020 I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Peace and Conflict Neuroscience Lab at the University of Pennsylvania, and Postdoctoral Innovation Lab Fellow at Beyond Conflict.

My program of research consists of an examination of different psychological barriers to attitude change and conflict resolution (e.g., victimhood), and the development of psychological interventions (e.g., paradoxical thinking) to address these barriers and promote better intergroup relations and conflict resolution. In my research, I employ a mixed-method approach with various qualitative and quantitative methods (e.g., intervention tournaments), in the lab and on a large-scale in the field; working in various contexts and populations worldwide, in collaboration with a broad community of international collaborators, as well as NGOs, advertising and media experts.
