Research
IDA conducts also research in political psychology using traditional social scientific methods. This research includes investigations in identification and voting behavior, the role of women in boards of directors, and the response of populations to large-scale attacks or natural disasters. As an outgrowth of the latter line of research, IDA was responsible in 2006 for the establishment of Psychology Beyond Borders, an international nonprofit focused on the research and treatment of the mental and community health impacts of terror and natural disasters.
