I've had a few queries about people running into danger in threatening emergencies, so here is a summary of the response. More information can be found in our practitioner guide: @ukri.org funded sussex.figshare.com/articles/rep...

The raid is already being called the most lethal police action in the history of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

I'm so excited about this paper that's not even mine, and super happy I work with such smart people! 🥰

Save the date! Next September we work on integrating social psychology and prefigurative politics, in a beautiful location :) @fmsmallfield.bsky.social @metesefauysal.bsky.social @daclarkecruz.bsky.social @eddieclarke.bsky.social @helenlandmann.bsky.social

What a way to kick-off vacation! 🤩 Our paper on the role of ideology and national glorification in selective solidarity with refugees (finally) got published in the International Journal of Social Psychology (y también está disponible en español)! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Proud to announce that our paper with Mortada Al-Amine, “Who holds the banner ‘Never Again’? The effects of protesters’ identity and audiences’ ideology on perceived unfairness of police treatment”, has been published in the International Journal of Social Psychology. Link: doi.org/10.1177/0213...

New pub! 📝 Solidarity with refugees depends on refugee‘s origin and gender. Partly explained through a similarity->threat link. We discuss this as a psychological expression of neocolonial geopolitics. spssi.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @tijana-et-al.bsky.social @arothers.bsky.social

Researchers in Darwin added First Nations seasonal calendars to solar irradiance forecasting and came up with some vastly improved results.

Tomorrow we bring together editors with ECRs! Come and ask your questions to @mjbsp.bsky.social, @lizsuhay.bsky.social, @rezartabilali.bsky.social, and Ana Figueiredo!

@polpsyispp.bsky.social maybe next year don’t have people present 2 or even 3 papers but rather have more people accepted to present one. Very unfair what you did this year. Also, in the language of the (huge) money: you also get more. Win-win isn’t it

“A 2010 study that analyzed 40 years of protest coverage in five major newspapers, including The New York Times and The Washington Post, found that the papers depicted protests — even peaceful ones — as nuisances rather than as necessary functions of democracy.”

We got annoyed by people (mainly politicians) saying „Europe“ when they mean the „EU“. So we wrote a paper 🤓

🚨 Publication alert 🚨 Happy to have our paper published in the Journal of Contemporary European Studies! With truly one & only amazing @fmsmallfield.bsky.social, and Christopher Cohrs 👇 www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

I am the co-editor of the Journal of War and Culture Studies. www.tandfonline.com/journals/ywa... Get in touch if you have an idea for a Special Issue. We are keen to support research by ECRs & amplify the work of scholars from underrepresented fields & backgrounds.

Happy to share we were awarded a Collaborative grant by the EASP to study the transformative effects of prefigurative politics in the context of the anti-corruption protests in Serbia! 😍 SO MUCH looking forward to this research with the most amazing people 👇

I agree that fascism is an ideology not just a certain set of regimes or methods. The ideology of fascism did not exist before the 1920s but the ideology of colonialism, which says certain races are inferior and legitimate targets for exploitation and elimination, did, and it influenced fascism.

We compare and contrast how, in 1936, Columbia University expelled a student for staging anti-Nazi protests and how Columbia has now punished 22 students for protesting against Israel's war on Gaza.

What a week for this to be published, though never not "timely": On "Collective Action Under Repressive Conditions: Integration of Individual, Group, and Structural Level Research, Recommendations, and Reflections" -led by Arin Ayanian, open access here: spssi.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

✏️ New Paper: Prejudice towards (Black/Muslim) refugees predicts fear of crime more strongly than vice versa. Recent debates about increasing deportation are therefore likely to increase fear of crime, not lower it. bpspsychub.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

There are few things funnier than Americans waddling into the politics of countries they know nothing about
