An intergroup lab open in York!

IACCP keynote: Climate skepticism and politicisation of climate change across countries strongly correlates with CO2 emissions. CO2 emissions are a proxy for fossil fuels vested interest. @iaccp.bsky.social #cross-culturalpsychology #IACCP2025

Job announcement 🚨: paid fieldwork opportunity with Sanguatsiniq research project! Details in thread ⬇️ Please share!

My sister is a jeweller and made a collection of memorial rings for extinct animal species. I think it's rad on so many levels. The kickstarter for the collection is 140% funded, but there's still 3 hours to get a unique ring at first-backer price: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gon... #art #jewelry

Bsky has a thread composer now. To celebrate, here is a thread about our recent paper on antiwar attitudes and actions in Russia. In August 2022, we asked ~1000 Russians about their feelings regarding the war in Ukraine and whether they did or planned to do anything to oppose it. #polpsy #socialpsyc

We have started a starter pack of Imperial & Colonial Historian on Bluesky! We will continue to add to it over the coming weeks - check it out here: go.bsky.app/4qEornE

A new book that is worth worth worth having. What I miss from our discipline the most in these past few years is a treatment of structural power. Psychology of resistance engages with this topic more than most other fields.

Here is why this value researcher is not despairing after Trump’s victory. (1/n)

As if the world was not in a deep enough hole. My optimist take is that there may be more urgency behind building a version of progressivism that would not be rejected 70-30 in almost every non-urban county in the US.

I whole-heartedly recommend reading this paper from Nature Scientific Reports aloud to a friend. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

For fellow students of values: Anat Bardi has a PhD opportunity on an exciting project "Changes in adolescents studying abroad towards promotion of diversity and inclusivity: A focus on their values and behaviour" www.royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and...

Just to say, if you are 30, more than half of all human fossil fuel emissions have occurred in your lifetime #dataviz

The data from the climate psychology collaboration is out in nature sc. data. @wilhelmhofmann.bsky.social @grigolus.bsky.social Sonja Grelle and myself designed one of the 11 interventions and collected some of these amazing data.

Across 42 countries, objective status is associated with system justification and people system justify more when their party is in power. Authors suggest that SIT and SDI make more accurate predictions than SJT #socpsych #polisky onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Ludi Simpson is a respected demographer, honorary prof. at Manchester, and decided to face likely imprisonment to support a just cause. It is inspiring. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I think these are very valid points that make me wonder how the paper made it through the Nature HB's review. Also see less reaction to this than it deserves.

Cool introduction to an important topic

Delighted to share the good news: I was awarded an ERC Starting Grant to study the “what”, the “why”, and the “how” of inferences we make from membership in social groups. Five years of funding, three postdoc positions to be announced, and many exciting studies to come! 🥳 #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky

Okay, I've tried to pull together people doing (cross-)cultural research that is Psychology adjacent... (probably 50% anthropologists at the minute - let me know who I need to add or take out!) go.bsky.app/TtpHfij

What can social psychologists do to help motivate climate action? The intervention we developed with @wilhelmhofmann.bsky.social, @grigolus.bsky.social and Sonja Grelle was one of the 11 in this ManyLabs competition and scored third for changing beliefs and increasing policy support.
