The propensity of the Moral Identity Profile to explain behavioral tendencies and actual behavior Two studies (Study 1: N = 314; Study 2: N = 347) explored the multidimensional Moral Identity Profile’s predictive power, revealing differing strengths of its four dimensions (Righteousness, Care, ...

A big thank you to my co-authors Alain Van Hiel, Leen Haerens, and Bram Constandt for their collaboration, and to the Social Psychology, Sport Management and MOVES teams at Ghent University for their continued support.

In two experimental studies with sport club members in Belgium and the UK (N = 597), we studied how people judge different types of fraud in sport.

What we found is striking but perhaps not surprising:

While there is a heated debate about the ethics of AI itself, we (with @tassilotissot.bsky.social) tested the effect of AI usage on effort perceptions and moral judgment.
