Narcissists report more ostracism—but why? 🤔
Led by @chrbuettner.bsky.social, this paper uncovers three key mechanisms linking #narcissism & #ostracism using experiments, experience sampling, surveys, and 14 years of data (N = 77,000+).

Why do narcissists report being ostracized more often?
In Journal of Personality and Social Psychology @apajournals.bsky.social w/ @selmarudert.bsky.social @ealbath.bsky.social CSibley RGreifeneder, we examine the link between #narcissism & #ostracism.

You’re seated at a table with strangers in a busy restaurant. They nod at you, then continue using their phones without talking. Do you feel excluded?
Turns out, the answer depends a lot on cultural context!

Tracking #conspiracy belief over time offers a window into how psychological needs factor into such thinking. A real pleasure to be involved in this great study led by @ealbath.bsky.social ! (+ @mdmarques.com and others)
Unmet psychological needs can drive people toward conspiracy belief, but this can start a self-reinforcing cycle which further erodes the need and creates more mistrust and disconnection.

What drives conspiracy beliefs? 📊
Feeling less control or less connected predicts increases over time—surprisingly, so does more meaning in life.

New findings! 📊
Analyzing 4 annual waves of data (N = 55,269), we show:
Between-person:
Chronically lower need satisfaction links to stronger conspiracy beliefs (CB).
Within-person:
- Lower control & belonging → increases in CB.
- Higher meaning in life also → increases in CB.

Very cool paper on social exclusion experiences online!
Would be interesting to see how these findings translate to other platforms, like those centered on pictures rather than text. #SocialPsychology #ostracism #socialexclusion

How do people behave after feeling the sting of social exclusion on social media? New #PSPB research suggests users quickly made new posts to reach broad audiences but took longer to engage in direct interactions with specific individuals.

According to my freshmen students, I’m not just their lecturer—I’m a style icon! 💃 My millennial heart may or may not have skipped a beat reading that in their evaluations. 😄
But seriously, such a fun, interactive group with great discussions—teaching them has been a total joy. ❤️ #socialpsychology
