Multi-region investigation of ‘man’ as default in attitudes
Phills, C. E.; Miller, J. K.; Buchanan, E. M.; Williams, A.; Meyers, C.; Brown, E. R.; Zickfeld, J.; Volsa, S.; Stieger, S.; Oberzaucher, E.; Mlakic, V.Previous research has studied the extent to which men are the default members of social groups in terms of memory, categorization, and stereotyping, but not attitudes which is critical because of attitudes’ relationship to behavior. Results from our survey (N > 5000) collected via a globally distributed laboratory network in over 40 regions demonstrated that attitudes toward Black people and politicians had a s...

M.Background: The Psychological Science Accelerator (PSA) recently completed a large-scale moral psychology study using translated versions of the Oxford Utilitarianism Scale (OUS).

Objective: The study investigated the structural validity evidence of the OUS across 15 translated versions and produced version-specific validity reports. Methods: We analyz...
Registered replication report: A large multilab cross-cultural conceptual repli...
Hall, B.; Schmidt, K.; Wagge, J.; Lewis, S. C.; Weissgerber, S. C.; Kiunke, F.; Pfuhl, G.; Stieger, S.; Tran, U. S.; Barzykowski, K.; Bogatyreva, N.According to the justified true belief (JTB) account of knowledge, people can truly know something only if they have a belief that is both justified and true (i.e., knowledge is JTB). This account was challenged by Gettier, who argued that JTB does not explain knowledge attributions in certain situations, later called “Gettier-type cases,” wherein protagonists are justified in believing something to be true, bu...
Raising the value of research studies in psychological science by increasing th...
Kekecs, Z.; Pálfi, B.; Szaszi, B.; Szecsi, P.; Zrubka, M.; Kovacs, M.; Bakos, B.; Cousineau, D.; Tressoldi, P.; Schmidt, K.; Grassi, M.; Evans, T. R.The low reproducibility rate in social sciences has produced hesitation among researchers in accepting published findings at their face value. Despite the advent of initiatives to increase transparency in research reporting, the field is still lacking tools to verify the credibility of research reports. In the present paper, we describe methodologies that let researchers craft highly credible research and allow...
Contextual factors predicting compliance behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic:...
Hajdu, N.; Schmidt, K.; Acs, G.; Röer, J. P.; Mirisola, A.; Giammusso, I.; Arriaga, P.; Ribeiro, R. R.; Dubrov, D.; Grigoryev, D.; Arinze, N. C.Voluntary isolation is one of the most effective methods for individuals to help prevent the transmission of diseases such as COVID-19. Understanding why people leave their homes when advised not to do so and identifying what contextual factors predict this non-compliant behavior is essential for policymakers and public health officials. To provide insight on these factors, we collected data from 42,169 individ...
Registered Replication Report: Rand, Greene, and Nowak (2012)
Bouwmeester, S.; Verkoeijen, P. P. J. L.; Aczel, B.; Barbosa, F.; Bègue, L.; Brañas-Garza, P.; Chmura, T. G. H.; Cornelissen, G.; Døssing, F. S.In an anonymous 4-person economic game, participants contributed more money to a common project (i.e., cooperated) when required to decide quickly than when forced to delay their decision (Rand, Greene & Nowak, 2012), a pattern consistent with the social heuristics hypothesis proposed by Rand and colleagues. The results of studies using time pressure have been mixed, with some replication attempts observing sim...
