Consequences (e.g. punishment), constraints (e.g. low anonymity), clarity (e.g. low uncertainty) all reduced variance in behavior.
These broadly map onto three mechanisms of behavioral regulation: Reinforcement learning, social norms-reputation concerns, & cognitive dissonance.

Very honored to share that our paper on how (and why) strong situations impact behavioral variance is finally out at *JPSP*! 🌷☺️ @IsabelThielmann @reinoutedevries, @danielballiet

An ideal gift for myself to mark my 10th year in psychology! Personality-social psychology is my ‘forever moonlight.’🌙
As an ultimate truth-seeker who wish to devote to the advancement of science, I am also very honored it's online the same day as the Nobel Prize release.🫡

What predicts cooperation in experimental games?

Expectations of partner behavior, preferences for conditional cooperation, & punishment seem to matter the most. Other commonly studied factors (e.g., time pressure, proximity) were much less important.

Really cool paper by Marco Colnaghi: Adaptations to infer fitness interdependence promote the evolution of cooperation https://t.co/5EV9Pcs81D

Utrecht University @UniUtrecht in the Netherlands has withdrawn itself from the World University ranking @THEworldunirank provided by @timeshighered. As this has generated quite some reactions - praise, questions, some doubts, I want to provide some context. Hence a thread 🧵1/16

Is GPT psychologically WEIRD? Using the World Values Survey and other psych measures, we seat GPT within a global perspective. The culturally more distant a place is from the US, the lower the correlation with GPT @MohammadAtari90 @blasi_lang @DorsaAmir

Wohoo, we recently launched our @PIC_Freiburg Twitter channel where we are going to share research and updates from our group studying personality, (un)ethical, and social behavior. Stay tuned!
