Most religious leaders *believe* climate change is happening, but DON’T talk to their congregations about it. “Why?” asks @GreggRSparkman. “They talk about floods and fires and other disasters!” #SESP2023

Congrats to @shahrgoudarzi for winning the #sesp2023 dissertation award, and congrats to the other finalists @catcthomas, Kimberly Martin, and @BrendaCStraka sesp.org/content.asp?co…

Climate policy shapes our norms: when you remind people of recent climate legislation, they think more people support climate reform. Reminding them that government is unrepresentative blunts (but doesn’t squash) the effect 😅 @GreggRSparkman #SESP2023

Climate policy supporters outnumber opponents 2 to 1 - but Americans may believe the OPPOSITE is true @GreggRSparkman #SESP2023

People aren’t very interested in solving climate change. But they ARE interesting in becoming happier. Can we harness that interest to boost behaviors that are good for our happiness AND the climate? @DunnHappyLab #SESP2023

My last @SESPcon post, but so so incredibly proud of @BrendaCStraka for being a dissertation award finalist this year!!!! Announced at lunch today, so now everyone knows how amazing her research is!! Being her PhD adviser was such an honor! #sesp2023 @DukePsychNeuro @DukeIDLab

What happens when we dunk on others? People infer we must be the OPPOSITE. (If they think that’s not an actively GOOD thing, they think less of us to boot) Eg, “bad takes” = “bad people” Jamie Krems #SESP2023

Gossip?! Gossip!! Kids think it’s okay to talk about others (but that it’s more okay to talk about what you did vs what others did), and that’s true whether what what they did is good or bad. @DrMeltemYucel #SESP2023

What do children gossip about? Kids tell their parents a lot about what other kids DO, but not so much what they look like. @DrMeltemYucel #SESP2023

And @EricMShuman shows great data testing how violent vs non-violent protests impact policy changes—more non-violent actions maintains positive perceptions but some violence doesn’t seem to negatively influence outcomes for the movement @SESPcon #sesp2023

Started off my morning @SESPcon seeing @adam_stanaland (yay!!) present new data on White men’s masculinity beliefs and endorsement of various aggressive policies pre and post the 2020 election—support varies by age and political orientation. #sesp2023 @DukeIDLab

And last up @Maz48377434 showed work testing what labels Hispanic/Latino/Latinx/Latine people prefer and how that varies by sexual orientation identity and what contexts and groups prefer what terms too! So much variation that is important to consider @SESPcon #sesp2023

Next @BrendaCStraka (yay!!) showed her work showing that the presence of citizenship questions and whether Hispanic is considered a race or an ethnicity shifts belonging as it relates to identity threat through a demographic form for Latino people @SESPcon #sesp2023 @DukeIDLab

Multiracial prototypicality and Latino prototypicality are correlated suggesting people conflate the two groups based on appearance @JackieMChen @SESPcon #sesp2023

Last session of the day all about Latino experiences. Dr. Gabriel Camacho shows an American symbol like the flag boosts perceptions of Latino people being more American. @SESPcon #sesp2023

More great work by @KimEChaney measuring motivations for anti-racism practices which shows some understudied motivations such as raising public awareness, pushing the need for us to study lay beliefs more in this area of research! @SESPcon #sesp2023

“The idea behind collective racial socialization is that it might create a unified identity across groups” @ryanlei_psych @SESPcon about his work on Black and Asian parent socialization messages which is so needed! #sesp2023

Just getting started at #SESP2023 ! UNCG social psych has arrived 😎🍻

Florida (and other states) want to make teaching structural racism illegal. What happens when people learn ACCURATE information about racial injustice? - @drkimjmartin 🧵 1/3 #SESP2023

Does what we read shape our worldviews? People who read more literary fiction growing up exhibit more complex worldviews (eg attributional complexity, lower essentialism) as adults - @NickButtrick #SESP2023

“What is it about fiction, about poetry, about narrative that makes it so powerful? …that makes philosophers think of mass murder?” - @NickButtrick on Plato #SESP2023

Does non-violent protest work for everyone? Not necessarily. People feel less sympathy and respond less positively to “non-respectable” Black protestors and protests in “non-respectable” Black communities. - Michael Perez #SESP2023

Hello, everyone @SESPcon! We would love to see all of your work submitted to JESP!! Hooray for new science!! #sesp2023

Such great work by @Sakiera_Hudson looking at how people see time as symbolic for temporal distance and racial progress considering slavery and the civil rights movement @SESPcon #sesp2023

“Bang! You’re Dead” - does finding out the ending eliminate the suspense? No it did not: spoilers didn’t make it any easier to focus on your goal (ie raising your hand every time you hear the word “gun”) Anna-Lisa Cohen #SESP2023

What kind of disparities motivate change? Learning about health disparities between Black and White Americans increased support for action and more ad clicks on social media, versus learning about disparities in economics or belonging - Riana Brown #SESP2023
