**About the project**

**Project Director(s) **Prof. Valentina Di Stasio

**Project details **For an ERC-funded project (‘TARGETS’), we conduct cross-nationally

comparative, experimental research on ethnic discrimination in the labour market.
Combining insights from sociology, social and organizational psychology,
sociolegal and organizational studies, we study discrimination perceptions from a
multi-actor and comparative perspective. Discrimination often manifests itself in
subtle ways (e.g., through contact avoidance, backhanded compliments or
nonverbal behavior) that leave victims questioning their experiences. This
ambiguity can be damaging for the self and for intergroup relations. Victims of
discrimination tend to ruminate on the incident for quite some time and often end
up blaming themselves. Many do not report discriminatory episodes to managers
or legal authorities for fear of not being believed. Unless supported by
organizational allies, discrimination claims can easily be dismissed as unfounded
or overreactions, which invalidates victims’ experiences. Victims, perpetrators and
bystanders may vary in how they perceive the same behaviour or situation.
Unfortunately, empirical studies have analyzed their perceptions in isolation. In
this project, we will design factorial survey experiments/conjoint experiments and
study how different actors (e.g. recruiters, victims, bystanders) react to
hypothetical scenarios that could be perceived as discriminatory. We will
randomly vary features of the event or the actors involved (e.g. subtlety, perceived
intentionality, harmful consequences) in the scenarios. We will field the factorial
survey experiments in four countries characterized by very different institutional
contexts and compare discrimination attributions across actors and contexts. The
postdoc will have room to develop part of the survey according to their own
research interests.
