Hi, I’m very pleased to share the preprint of my first project with my PI @choongwanwoo.bsky.social and amazing collaborators Seok-Jun Hong and E.A.R. Losin.

Here we examined the behavioral and neural dynamics of pain as a continuous integration process (1/8)

Preview of poster session titled "Of Mice and Machines: Economic thinking and the mechanistic dehumanization of (im)migrants" by P. A. Palma and V. M. Esses. Poster text reads (paraphrased for space): Do people dehumanize economic and non-economic immigrants differently? Anti-immigrant rhetoric dehumanizes immigrants and refugees, comparing them to vermin, ‘floods’ or ‘hordes’. Economic thinking about immigration has been associated with anti-immigrant attitudes, and may lead to other forms of dehumanization. Workers and economically competitive outgroups are viewed less warmly and experience greater mechanistic dehumanization, where they are likened to machines. Hypothesis 1: Immigrants selected for skill and economic contribution are more mechanistically dehumanized; non-economic immigrants are more animalistically dehumanized. Hypothesis 2: Thinking about economic, but not cultural, contribution of immigrants is associated with mechanistic, but not animalistic, dehumanization.

What predicts #cooperation?

A meta-analysis of 2,636 experiments finds that expectations of cooperation, social orientation, norms, and punishment predict cooperation.

Religiosity, time pressure, cognitive load, and hormones do NOT predict cooperation osf.io/preprints/ps...
