Phone: (631) 675-6500 Ed O'Neal's research deals with issues surrounding human aggression. In the past few years he and his students have explored the effects of retaliatory motivation on information processing. In this series of studies persons who anticipate an opportunity to retaliate freely (compared to aggressively motivated persons without prospect of getting even) give high priority to aggression-related information in recall, interest, associations, and attributions. His other current research interests include the overlap of stereotyping processes and aggression. Journal Articles: Beal, D., O'Neal, E., Ong, J., & Ruscher, J.B. (2000).
