Frank Mols is a political scientist at the School of Political Science and International Studies at the University of Queensland, Australia, where he holds a PhD from the School of Political Sciences at the University of Exeter. Mols works on political psychology, voter attitudes, political behaviour, and public policy, with particular attention to how identity, economic conditions, and political communication shape support for populist parties and attitudes toward immigration and the European Union. Much of this work draws on social identity theory to examine questions of leadership, campaign messaging, and persuasion.
