6/ This also helps explain when we might get #MoralLicensing v #MoralConsitency

➡️ When establishing a new rep to others, we may license

➡️ When on our own, may be more morally consistent

3/ 🌟In a meta-analysis (k = 115, N > 21,000):

Moral licensing effect is much stronger when people are observed!! 👀

➡️ Not observed: essentially no effect (Hedge’s g ≈ 0)
➡️ Explicitly observed: Med effect size (g = 0.51)

Bayesian analysis shows 9x more evidence for licensing when observed! 📈

I rarely share my art projects... but here is a pic of my dining room mural in progress. 🍃

Still lots to do, although it is coming along! Feeling very peaceful this morning ☕️ 🌄 😊
