been thinking a lot in my lab about what it means to use the state to go after your enemies (for no reason at all). the beginnings of that thinking are in our paper on what makes state punishment unique (now in press at EJSP)

there are so many rules to follow! only some of them the state enforces; in our new preprint "the psychology of state punishment" @jowylie.bsky.social connie chiu, nicolette dakin, wil cunningham & i argue state punishment is unique 🧵 #psychscisky

what counts as breaking a rule? you might think this q is easy, but people actually integrate signals from morality, legality, punishability, and normativity to figure it out, new preprint w/ @jowylie.bsky.social & dries bostyn osf.io/preprints/ps... #psychscisky #cognition #socpsyc #philsky
Are there any papers that come to mind on intergroup contact between Greeks and Turks? #PrejudiceResearch #socpsyc
What are people's favorite things for participants to do/tasks for participants to complete in pairs/small groups *other than* the fast friends procedure? I'm looking for tasks that could take up 10-20 minutes of a dyadic interaction, ideally. #socpsyc #PsychSciSky
Abstract for a paper that reads, How does the rise of ideologically extreme leaders affect attitudes and beliefs among their supporters? Previous research on paradoxical thinking suggests that when individuals are exposed to a radicalized version of their held beliefs, they moderate them in response. However, it is yet unknown whether, how, and among whom, such moderation occurs in response to radicalization of individuals' favored leaders. The proposed study examines how an unfolding real-world manifestation of a paradoxical thinking intervention—that is, the radical and extreme policies carried out by the newly elected Israeli government—affects the political attitudes of the government's supporters. Using a longitudinal design, we examined how pre-election attitudes (N = 589 government supporters) moderate, radicalize, or remain unchanged following the announcement and implementation of radical policies. Over four time points, we also examine the psychological mechanisms mediating the policies' moderating impact, to disentangle the reciprocal or paradoxical effects of radicalization among leaders on the public.
Following the implementation of policies that were the "extreme version far beyond mainstream conservative positions" people in Israel shifted to the left on issues

🚨New preprint is out! 🚨 "Inoculation Theory as a Design Approach To Gamified Misinformation". 🧵🔽 osf.io/preprints/ps... #InoculationTheory #misinformation #socpsyc #design #gamification #learning
Paper abstract: Although much is known about why people engage in collective action participation (e.g., politicized identity, group-based anger), little is known about the psychological consequences of such participation. For example, can participation in collective action facilitate attitude moralization (e.g., moralize their attitudes on the topic)? Based on the idea that collective action contexts often involve a strong social movement fighting against an immoral adversary, we propose that participating in collective action facilitates attitude moralization over time. By integrating the moralization and collective action literatures, we hypothesized that participation in collective action moralizes individuals’ attitudes over time because it politicizes their identity, enrages them vis-a-vis the outgroup, and/or empowers them to achieve social change. We tested these hypotheses in a 2-year, five-wave longitudinal study (N = 1,214) in the contentious context of the Chilean student movement. We examined within-person (and between-person) changes over time and consistently found that participation in collective action predicted individual changes in moral conviction over time through politicized identification and group-based anger toward the outgroup. Furthermore, moral conviction predicted participation in collective action over time—an effect consistently explained by politicized identification. These findings are the first to show that (a) participation in collective action moralizes individuals’ attitudes because it politicizes their identity and enrages them vis-a-vis the (immoral) outgroup and that (b) moralization in turn helps to better understand sustained movement participation. Theoretical implications for the literature on moralization and collective action are discussed.

Hi #SocialPsyc feed. I’ve removed “social psychology” as a tag phrase for this feed to try to make its posts a bit more intentional and relevant. So, from now on, the only hashtags that will get posts included in this feed are: #socialpsyc & #socpsyc (neither one case sensitive)! 👍
Intergroup Contact
New research finds that intensifying positive contact with outgroup members has a stronger effect on outgroup attitudes than intensifying negative contact.
