Dear fellow psychologists, have you ever heard of an effect somewhere between Pygmalion, placebo, Milgram where patients in psychiatry would have better performance in cognitive tasks than controls, simply due to the presence of their usual psychiatrist/carer/white blouse? Whereas control participants do not meet any white blouse person during the protocol and are recorded off the hospital premises.

The Profound Loneliness of Being Collapse Aware

Knowing that civilization is going to collapse can be a profoundly lonely experience. Let’s find one other and enjoy the time we have left.

I love that this piece addresses our #FundamentalAttributionErrors, how it relates to #ClimateChange, and what Rocky can teach us about why some people succeed and some people don't.
And it's NOT because unsuccessful people didn't try hard enough, didn't take enough responsibility, and didn't have enough grit.
It's time to end the notion that we are rugged individuals who win or lose based on our choices alone. We're in this together.

I'm reading about #SocialPsychology and I wonder:
Why western society scientists focus only on small group of individuals?
I mean, studies about coercion and gas lighting seem to be the exclusivity of philosophy.
Q: Why do people remain biased even after psychologists have revealed their potential biases?
A: People have a "bias blind spot": They understand that biases exist but they fail to see them in their own attitudes and behaviour.

More to lose, less to say!
New study (N = 896) suggests that white-collar workers may remain silent in the face of abusive supervision practices because they’re more concerned about losing their status and privileges relative to blue-collar workers.

In a #fedicamp workshop convened by @mro, @wuffel just said psychologists should study how we can wean off people from #GAFAM products such as WhatsApp. I think there is some promising literature out there – you just have to know where to look.

"More than a prejudice reduction effect: Positive intergroup contact reduces conspiracy theory beliefs"
A research study focusing on relationships with immigrants and Jewish people indicates that positive contact with diverse groups can counteract conspiracy theories.
#conspiracytheories #discrimination #socialpsychology
New social psychology research finds conservatives’ beliefs that immigrants aren’t supporting the American system enough explains their bias against immigrants and supports a new “Perceived System Justification Deficit Model of Prejudice”.

Ingroup love and Outgroup Hate
New social psychology studies find people’s motive to conform to their group’s norms predicts both their ingroup love and, to a lesser extent, their outgroup hate.
