Brief recap: While there were more men (or rather: male-read persons) than usual, they still made up less than half of the audience. Regardless of gender, however, it was amazing to see the great interest in this topic - with nearly every seat being taken!

Bsky has a thread composer now. To celebrate, here is a thread about our recent paper on antiwar attitudes and actions in Russia. In August 2022, we asked ~1000 Russians about their feelings regarding the war in Ukraine and whether they did or planned to do anything to oppose it.

The Contradictory Nature of Anti-Transgender Rhetoric - Thekla Morgenroth, Kira K. Means, Alexandria S. Mueller, Kris D. Sass, 2024 Transgender rights are a polarizing topic. When examining the rhetoric used by those opposed to transgender rights, it often seems like their arguments contradi...

Great paper by @theklamorgenroth.bsky.social et al. reveals that contradictory anti-transgender arguments are highly correlated. The study finds that people often simultaneously believe that trans* individuals are both a negligible minority and "taking over." journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Be careful, academics. It's Saturday now. Try to not work. Don't aim for inbox zero. Don't look at your to-do list. There is no spare of you

Summary of research findings in poster format. 500 participants were recruited from Prolific Academic, and completed immigration attitudes scales assessing economic thinking about immigration and cultural enrichment beliefs. They then completed blatant measures of animalistic dehumanization (asking how 'evolved' various groups appeared to be) and mechanistic dehumanization (asking how 'machine-like' various groups appeared to be) for Canadians in general, economic migrants, family class migrants, refugees, temporary foreign workers, and international students.

Economic migrants, international students, and temporary foreign workers were more mechanistically (vs animalistically) dehumanized overall, and to a greater extent compared to Canadians in general, family class migrants and refugees.

Economic thinking lead to the greater mechanistic dehumanization of all immigrant groups, but did not affect animalistic dehumanization for the most part.

PRE-PRINT

We looked at dehumanization across different immigrants groups and found that (1) immigrants selected for economic contribution were more mechanistically dehumanized and (2) economic thinking lead to mechanistic dehumanization of all immigrants

This was a huge team effort led by @madalina.bsky.social and @kimdoell.bsky.social. The future self-continuity intervention we developed with @vponizovskiy.bsky.social, @wilhelmhofmann.bsky.social, and Sonja Grelle, was in the top 3 interventions for changing beliefs and policy support.

@miweissflog.bsky.social will be presenting the results of our experience sampling study, where we tracked participants daily interactions and tested if & how their intergroup attitudes change over time, depending on who they interact with. The other talks are also super fun, don’t miss out!

How do someone's personal pronouns influence how others categorize and perceive their gender? If you're also at the #SPSP2024 LGBTIQ+ preconference, join today's afternoon session on trans and intersex topics to discuss this project in progress which I'm really excited about 😊
