❓ Although speculative at this point, we believe trust in national government is related to beliefs that institutions are already doing enough; whereas trust in local government (and greater contact with it) is related to beliefs that personal investment is safe and worthwhile.

Results in a 🥜:

📈 Increases in LOCAL political trust are related to GREATER likelihood to volunteer three months later.

📉 Increases in NATIONAL political trust are related to LOWER likelihood to volunteer three months later.

📈 New research shows that increased trust in local government is associated with a greater likelihood of volunteering, but an increase in national trust is related to a lower likelihood of volunteering.

"A lot of the crazy things that keep happening in the world actually can make a lot of sense once you start seeing it through that lens – people get in groups and then they do weird stuff."

Social Psychology Summer School at Kent YouTube video by University of Kent

📽️ We have an official video for the European Association of Social Psychology (EASP) summer school 2025!

Not only does it show my face as a still (why, oh why??), it also features my best take on #socialpsychology yet...

Results in a nutshell:

🎯 Respondents with higher futures consciousness are more supportive of all policies in general

📊 The effect is fully mediated by perceptions of policy fairness and effectiveness - but not intrusiveness

Effective, fair or Intrusive? The role of futures consciousness in environmental policy acceptance As the current environmental crisis unfolds, there is an increasing call for stronger governmental action to accelerate societal transformation. The c…

📢 New paper alert - hot off the press in #JEVP ! In our latest piece from the BIODIFUL project, we investigate how #FuturesConsciousness relates to acceptance of strong pro-environmental policies.

🗞️ Curious? You can read the article #openaccess:

👉 Trust and concern interact, highlighting the importance of considering them both in combination.

👉 Different forms of trust and concern uniquely predict different governance preferences.

✅ Support for technocracy: lowest among those with low trust in epistemic institutions AND low concern about the health consequences of COVID-19

☑️ Support for authoritarianism: lowest among those with high trust in nonpartisan institutions AND low concern about the economic consequences of COVID-19

Support for Technocratic and Authoritarian Governance in Times of Crisis: The Role of Trust and COVID-19 Concerns Abstract. There is a dearth of research into the combined effect of political trust and societal concern on preferences for different models of governance.

New paper out! W/ Silvia Russo & Michele Roccato, we give a new twist to the distrustful complacency hypothesis - testing how it predicts preference for #authoritarian and #technocratic governance.

🫠 Still swirling a bit after 2 intense weeks that brought me to Latvia/Lithuania/Italy, between #ICEP2025 and #FINT2025.

Two fairly different conferences in size / topics / crowds. But also like-minded: working hard for the best science, benevolent, and especially caring of young scholars. 🧡

🎤 Packed room for our symposium on #future thinking at #ICEP2025! Congratulations to Jakob Schuck for a fantastic talk + all speakers, @auroregrandin.bsky.social, @iaojala.bsky.social, C. Jinhee Capozzoli, @maiensachis.bsky.social. Great to see so much interest from the environmnt psych community! 🌟
