And it hasn’t changed much in two decades…

Oxford University ‘withheld information about harassment claims’ Miles Hewstone, who quit in 2019 but retained his emeritus titles for years, is accused of making unwanted advances towards students and researchers

A new article provides evidence that Miles Hewstone was engaging in sexual harassment/assault at Oxford and other universities for 30 years. More women have bravely come forward to describe his behavior. This is the tip of the iceberg since I know other women.

Thanks to Hema for a wonderful collaboration and thanks to all authors for their insightful analyses, taking us back to the classic studies that form the cornerstone of the young field of political psychology.

Ooh, that looks fun—congrats! 👏

for anyone making their syllabus this week.

A solid start for those interested in climate psychology.

Completely agree. Agency is a relational (rather than individual) concept. plato.stanford.edu/entries/femi...

My household would probably vote either sticky toffee pudding or gingerbread cheesecake.

Very cool. Same probably goes for “environmental identity.” Some measures are so broad that multiple groups get caught up in the measurement. One could imagine different strengths and directions of relationships with the multiple types of behaviors in those (especially older) “PEB” measures.

Very kind. Be fun to hang out. Always up for a change of scenery. 😊

Completely agree with the “just right” on all kinds of dimensions. Definitely one of our favorite places to visit! 👍

We moved to Wisconsin from Calgary, Alberta, a city of 1.4 million. Everything in Wisconsin still feels little to me! 😉

A rare tenured position in a cool little town just the highway. Not a drop of tone deaf funding stuff in the ad. I’d love to see it go to an environmental interested person. 👍🤞

Fiske suggested a long time ago that those outside of power circles have an important take on how systems work. If so, I wonder what crowding out smaller players might do to the emancipatory potential of ideas across the field.

Maybe this is more of a wonder than a current issue. To the extent that larger, more international samples become a bigger part of our field (a good thing), this could crowd out those at smaller or less affluent schools that don’t have the resources needed to collect such samples (a bad thing).

When conferences are held close enough to home that you can save on hotel fees and choose to sleep in your own bed at night

You can, but why would you want to? That’d be a really fast pace.

The question becomes does, and how does, your findings help make sense of this contradiction across two different, but clearly-related,literatures?

Or maybe you hit on what seems like a contradiction—that we *should* use individuating info but don’t (an overuse of group info; an implication of the old models you cite), but at the same time we *should not* be colorblind (an overuse of individuating info?; in prejudice reduction models).
