We are the Center for Social Psychology at @UniBasel | sharing news & research of our members and others!
✒️ Write! All! The! Things!
The Social Psych Lab got together this week for our 2nd writing retreat.
🤓 We head to the mountains, surrounded by a gorgeous scenery... and then try to ignore it and focus on our laptops!
We write, we hike, we cook, we play Trial By Trolley... we repeat!
At our #LabMeeting yesterday, we got to listen to @fannylalot.bsky.social from the University of Basel, who presented her interesting research on the influence of future consciousness on political engagement!✨✨

📄 New paper from our lab! Anna-Marie Bertram, @fannylalot.bsky.social and Rainer Greifeneder investigated how truth judgments (thinking an affirmation is true vs. false) might be related to people's trust propensity (their general tendency to see others as trustworthy).

"A lot of the crazy things that keep happening in the world actually can make a lot of sense once you start seeing it through that lens – people get in groups and then they do weird stuff."
