Idhamsyah Eka Putra’ research interests are concerned to understand intergroup conflicts and the development of intergroup tolerance. He has introduced a new term that is called as meta-prejudice. This is about how thinking or believing of others are (negatively) thinking. This mechanism of thinking has shown to play a key role in influencing perceptions and behavior. His current research work focuses on the relationship between Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism, meta-prejudice and prejudice expression, victim blaming, and extreme social exclusions.
