Really excited to share my first solo-authored article, out now in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin!

I test when and why Democrats and Republicans differ in their tolerance for undemocratic actions.

🧵

New preprint with my grad advisee, Zeenat Ahmed. When and why do Americans prioritize party wins over democracy? Not because they don’t know what democracy is. Maybe, sometimes bc they don’t notice that in-partisans are violating democratic principles. There are some caveats. osf.io/preprints/os....

Officially a doctor, or PhDONE (I think is what they say). So grateful to @lindaskitka.bsky.social and all the help I've received these past few years!

*Texas doctor & professor points out on tiktok that patients are not legally required to answer citizenship question in order to receive care
*Abbott threatens funding of hospital and university
*Video is removed

These overt threats by politicians to stifle speech becoming all too common.

Thanks for posting this! Here are my graphs from a couple data sets configured like yours. I get a slight positive relationship in one and a negative relationship in another, but there is clearly that curvilinear pattern going on in both—though not quite the same as yours @derekholliday.com

POLITICAL SCIENCE MYSTERY:

Found some weird/interesting things about how Americans view 40 social movements in a survey I conducted recently with YouGov (1/11)

Excited to share my first article at YouGov looking at partisan views on student debt relief!

I discuss party differences in who is blamed for student debt and whether having (vs. not having) student loans may affect the parties differently.

So excited to be starting today as the U.S. 2024 Elections Intern for YouGov. Can't wait to dive into some polling with the U.S. News Team!

🧵How *moral* are the moral foundations?

We asked this question in my (now published!) first, first-author paper: "Values in Context: The (Dis)connections Between Moral Foundations and Moral Conviction" in PSPB!

Pleased to see we've having more discussions about the shortcoming of Moral Foundations Theory (MFT).

I've discussed some of its limitations here journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
