Thanks for sharing @valentimvicente.bsky.social 😊

I think we need a more nuanced analysis of the link between 2nd-order beliefs and climate action. It’s often assumed that underestimating support for policies leads to inaction, but our findings suggest it can also be a volunteer’s dilemma.

Do you study cooperation and how it varies across societies, including those that are under-represented? Are you interested in how AI is fundamentally reshaping human cooperation?

If so, don’t miss our special issue on Current Directions in Social Dilemmas Research

Usually at the end of the summer, I offer to read someone’s job market materials if they are looking for like an R2 or teaching oriented job (I’m best at reading American pol). Maybe people are doing this work earlier though? Happy to help 2 people. PoliSky

That's great! In the BJPOLS, however, we did not find an effect of political ideology on perception of norms against the far-right (correct me if I'm wrong, @valentimvicente.bsky.social ). Perhaps we should have measured party affiliation instead.

Thanks to everybody who chimed in!

I arrived at the conclusion that (1) there's a lot of interesting stuff about interactions and (2) the figure I was looking for does not exist.

So, I made it myself! Here's a simple illustration of how to control for confounding in interactions:>
