Moral framing has long been proposed as a way to shift attitudes. @marlenevoit.bsky.social @mtwardawski.bsky.social & Moritz Fischer tested this with conservatives who are often skeptical about climate change and found it didn’t work. Thus, there are understudied limits of moral reframing.

Check out this great new piece (so excited to see it out!!). Analysis of German political manifestos shows an increase in victimhood narratives over time (especially by more extreme parties on the left and right).

Excited to see this article finally out 🎉

Last week I attended the @komrex-unijena.bsky.social dialogue forum on how insights from the 2024 election study can foster democratic culture. With @marlenevoit.bsky.social and @vbojarskich.bsky.social, we shared results on voter marginalization and acceptance of political violence. It was great!

New paper! Morality & political orientation 🧭

Right: more attuned to moral violations affecting themselves
Left: more attuned to moral violations affecting others

Adding perspectives to moral foundations challenges old assumptions & likely sharpens predictions
