About Us

In general terms, the members of our lab conduct research in a field known as social cognition.

Social cognition is a subfield of social psychology, which is concerned mainly with how people make sense of their social worlds - consisting of other people around them as well as the groups and communities to which they belong.

  • Experimental and cross-cultural evidence that parenthood and parental care motives increase social conservatism
    Kerry, N., Al-Shawaf, L., Barbato, M., Batres, C., Blake, K. R., Cha, Y., Chauvin, G. V., Clifton, J. D. W., Fernandez, A. M., Galbarczyk, A., Ghossainy, M. E., Jang, D., Jasienska, G., Karasawa, M., Laustsen, L., Loria, R., Luberti, F., Moran, J., Pavlovic´, Z., Petersen, M. B., Smith, A. R., Zˇezˇelj, I., & Murray, D. R. (2022). Experimental and cross-cultural evidence that parenthood and parental care motives increase social conservatism. Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 289 , 20220978. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2022.0978
    Despite the clear psychological importance of parenthood and the motivation to provide care for children, researchers have only recently begun investigating their influence on social and political attitudes. Because socially conservative values ostensibly prioritize safety, stability, and family values, we hypothesized that being more invested in parental care might make socially conservative policies more appealing.
  • Individual, group, and temporal perspectives on the link between wealth and realistic threat
    Celikkol, G., Renvik, T. A., Sortheix, F. M., Jasinskaja-Lahti, I., Jetten, J., Ariyanto, A., Autin, F., Ayub, N., Badea, C., Besta, T., Butera, F., Costa-Lopes, R., Cui, L., Fantini, C., Finchilescu, G., Gaertner, L, Gollwitzer, M., Gómez, A. González, R., Hong, Y.-y., Jensen D. H., Karasawa, M., Kessler, T., Klein, O., Lima, M., Megevand, L., Morton, T., Paladino, P., Polya,T., Ruza, A., Shahrazad, W., Shama, S., Smith, H. J.,Torres, A. R., van der Bles, A. M., & Wohl, M. J. A. (2022). Individual, group, and temporal perspectives on the link between wealth and realistic threat. Current Research in Ecological & Social Psychology, 3. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cresp.2022.100054
    In this 28-country study (N = 6112), we assessed how subjective perceptions and objective indicators of wealth were associated with majority group members’ perceptions of realistic threat related to immigration.
  • Materialist and post-materialist concerns and the wish for a strong leader in 27 countries
    Lima, M. E. O., de França, D. X., Jetten, J., Pereira, C. R., Ariyanto, A., Autin, F., Ayub, N., Badea, C., Tomasz Besta, T., Butera, F., Costa-Lopes, R., Fantini, C., Finchilescu, G., Gaertner, L., Gollwitzer, M., Ángel Gómez, Á, González, R., Hong, Y-y., Jensen, D. H., Karasawa, M., Kessler, T., Klein, O., Jasinskaja-Lathi, I., Megevand, L., Morton, T., Paladino, P., Polya, T., Renvik, T. A., Ruza, A., Shahrazad, W., Shama, S., Smith, H. J., Torres, A. R., van der Bles, A. M., & Wohl, M. J. A. (2021). Materialist and post-materialist concerns and the wish for a strong leader in 27 countries. Journal of Social and Political Psychology, 9(1), 207-220. https://doi.org/10.5964/jspp.6213
    We explore whether objective higher levels of democracy are differentially associated with materialist and post-materialist concerns and, in turn, whether this is related to the wish for a strong leader.
