  • Jim Sidanius
    Jim Sidanius Jim Sidanius, John Lindsley Professor of Psychology in memory of William James and of African and African American Studies in the Departments of Psychology and African and African American Studies at Harvard University, has passed away unexpectedly in his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at age 75. A giant among political psychologists, he was a key contributor not only to the field in general, but also to ISPP in particular—serving variously as a vice president of ISPP, a member of the ISPP Governing Council over multiple terms, and as an Editor of the journal Political Psychology. It is difficult to overestimate the scope of Jim’s contributions as a scholar. His work, as embodied in over 300 scientific papers and four major books, reshaped our understanding of intergroup relations and political attitudes and behavior in group-stratified societies. He earned his PhD in psychology from the Department of Psychology at the University of Stockholm in 1977 guided by Bo Ekehammar. Jim then held appointments at a number of prestigious institutions, including Carnegie-Mellon University, the University of Texas at Austin, New York University, Princeton University, the University of California, Los Angeles, and finally Harvard University. During his lifetime, he received numerous awards and honors that attest to his stature in the field, including the Society for Personality and Social Psychology’s 2013 Career Contribution Award and 2021 APA Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award for the Applications of Psychology. He was also inducted as a Fellow to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2007, and he was a Fellow in both the Association for Psychological Science and the Society for Experimental Social Psychology.

Social Psychology: Who We Are and What We Do Abraham Tesser and Jinn Jopp Bau Institute for Behavioral Research University of Georgia The author index of the Handbook of Social Psychology (Gilbert, Fiske & Lindzey, 1998) and of Social Psychology: Handbook of Basic Processes (Higgins & Krug- lanski, 1996) served as the basis for identifying and describing some of the people constructing social psychology in the 1990s. Over 10,000 names are mentioned, but relativelyfew are mentioned several times. The 106 contributors who were mentioned mostfrequently are identified and described. They are mostly men about 20 years be- yond the PhD. The select set of institutions at which they work andfrom which they obtained their degrees are also identified. Similarities among contributors were cal- culated on the basis ofthe proximity oftheir mentions in the handbooks. An analysis of those similarities yielded eight "contributorfactors": social cognition, attitudes, motivated attribution, self, interpersonal influence, intergroup relations and stereo- types, culture and evolution, and interpersonal relationships. I have been fascinated with the subject matter and the people who they believe currently have the most in- theoretical thinking in social and personality psychol- fluence in the field.
