Are voters turning radical because of culture wars or economic fears?

A recent study in JSPP finds:
🔹Economic insecurity boosts Radical Left support
🔹Cultural threats and econmic fears combined boost Radical Right support
🔹Cultural fears alone often push people to the center

Read the full paper👇
Cultural Threats Versus Economic Insecurities: A Role-Playing Experiment on Supporting Populist Radical Discourses
Although some scholars have associated cultural threats with radical right support and economic insecurities with radical left support, it has also been highlighted that economic insecurities might drive support for radical right movements.

Vystopia, vegan dystopia, is an existential crisis experienced by some ethical vegans who see society as morally failing.

Veitch & Gregson examined the psychosocial characteristic of vystopic vegans using linguistic data from the subreddit r/Vystopia (N_posts = 14,542).

The Vegan Dystopia: Understanding the Psychosocial Experience of Vystopia
While most often explored in fictional contexts, the ability to imagine alternative worlds (i.e., utopias and dystopias) may play a critical role in shaping human morality, justice, and social change.

🎼 Can AI write music as well as humans?
Not yet.
A new study tested melodies by ChatGPT-4, Llama 3, and Qwen 2 vs. human compositions and found that music students rated human creations higher on all counts (convincing, logical, interesting, likable).

What are AAMs anyway?

They're the final version of a research article after peer review and acceptance, but before copyediting and publisher formatting.

While the final publishing can take some time, an AAM lets readers access your research immediately.
Citable, and archived with its own DOI.
Want to make your research available before final publication?

Once your article is accepted by one of our journals, simply download and complete the AAM (Author Accepted Manuscript) form.

Your AAM is archived in PsychArchives and appears under 'Forthcoming Articles' on the journal’s website.
