About Kieren
Dr Kieren Lilly is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Queensland. His primary research explores perceptions of and responses to (in)equality, with a particular interest in the motivators of right-wing social movements. For instance, Kieren’s recent research explores reactionary collective action support, the effects of psychological entitlement on perceptions of inequality, and typologies of authoritarianism among the general public.
In his role at UQ, Kieren works across government funded projects monitoring and evaluating public programs related to substance use, criminal justice, and primary care. His broader research interests include gender, sexuality, and mental health, particularly among marginalised populations.
