Morality-as-Cooperation (MAC) is the theory that morality a collection of biological and cultural solutions to problems cooperation recurrent in human social life. MAC uses game identify distinct types cooperation, predicts each will be considered morally relevant, give rise moral domain. Here we test MAC's predictions by developing new self-report measure morality, Questionnaire (MAC-Q), comparing its psychometric properties those Moral Foundations (MFQ). Over four studies, results support...
This 4-year, multi-informant longitudinal study (N = 480, initial age: 15) investigated the interplay between parental support, behavioral and psychological control, adolescents' emotion regulation development. We examined reciprocal effects parents children, mothers' versus fathers' unique roles in development, sex differences. Multi-informant data allowed us to compare of adolescent-perceived parent-reported parenting. Finally, innovative analyses disentangle between-family differences...
Learning about hypothesis evaluation using the Bayes factor could enhance psychological research. In contrast to null-hypothesis significance testing it renders evidence in favor of each hypotheses under consideration (it can be used quantify support for null-hypothesis) instead a dichotomous reject/do-not-reject decision; straightforwardly multiple without having bother proper manner account testing; and allows continuous reevaluation after additional data have been collected (Bayesian...
During the initial phase of COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. conservative politicians and media downplayed risk both contracting effectiveness recommended health behaviors. Health behavior theories suggest perceived vulnerability to a threat health-protective behaviors determine motivation follow recommendations. Accordingly, we predicted that-as result politicization pandemic-politically Americans would be less likely enact In two longitudinal studies residents, political conservatism was inversely...
The relationships that students have with teachers and peers are important for their academic, social, behavioral development. How relate to may affect students’ peer thereby foster or hamper To shed more light on the teacher’s role respect relationships, this meta-analysis assessed association between quality of teacher–student (n = 297 studies; n 1,475 unique effect sizes). We took student behavior into account, as it is known both types relationship. In addition, design characteristics...
Cross-societal differences in cooperation and trust among strangers the provision of public goods may be key to understanding how societies are managing COVID-19 pandemic. We report a survey conducted across 41 between March May 2020 ( N = 34,526), test pre-registered hypotheses about cross-societal relate prosocial responses (e.g., social distancing), stringency policies, support for behavioral regulations mandatory quarantine). further tested whether variation institutions ecologies...
Understanding the determinants of COVID-19 vaccine uptake is important to inform policy decisions and plan vaccination campaigns. The aims this research were to: (1) explore individual- country-level intentions be vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2, (2) examine worldwide variation in intentions. This cross-sectional online survey was conducted during first wave pandemic, involving 6697 respondents across 20 countries. Results showed that 72.9% participants reported positive COVID-19, whereas...
Abstract The present paper examines longitudinally how subjective perceptions about COVID-19, one’s community, and the government predict adherence to public health measures reduce spread of virus. Using an international survey ( N = 3040), we test infection risk perception, trust in governmental response communications conspiracy beliefs, social norms on distancing, tightness culture, community punishment various containment-related attitudes behavior. Autoregressive analyses indicate that,...
Latent class analysis (LCA) refers to techniques for identifying groups in data based on a parametric model. Examples include mixture models, LCA with ordinal indicators, and latent growth analysis. Despite its popularity, there is limited guidance respect decisions that must be made when conducting reporting LCA. Moreover, lack of user-friendly open-source implementations. Based contemporary academic discourse, this paper introduces recommendations which are summarized the SMART-LCA...
Abstract The coronavirus pandemic posed a major challenge to mental health. Existing evidence shows that COVID-19 is related poor emotional well-being, particularly among women. However, most work on the subject uses single-country samples, limiting ability generalize disparity or explain it as function of societal variables. present study investigates expression positive and negative emotions during gender across 24 countries ( N = 49,637). Strong differences emerged countries, with women...
The COVID-19 pandemic presents threats, such as severe disease and economic hardship, to people of different ages. These threats can also be experienced asymmetrically across age groups, which could lead generational differences in behavioral responses reduce the spread disease. We report a survey conducted 56 societies (N = 58,641), tested pre-registered hypotheses about how relates (a) perceived personal costs during pandemic, (b) prosocial (e.g., social distancing), (c) support for...
Adopting open science principles can be challenging, requiring conceptual education and training in the use of new tools. This paper introduces Workflow for Open Reproducible Code Science (WORCS): A step-by-step procedure that researchers follow to make a research project reproducible. workflow intends lower threshold adoption principles. It is based on established best practices, used either parallel to, or absence of, top-down requirements by journals, institutions, funding bodies. To...
This 4-year study examined longitudinal interplays between adolescents' and mothers' self-reported empathic concern (EC) perspective taking (PT). We investigated (a) whether EC predicted rank-order change in their PT over time, or vice versa; (b) empathy relative increases empathy; (c) adolescent gender moderated the over-time links from to (d) stability of time differed within respondents. Adolescents' positively but not versa. Mothers' for girls, boys. The was greater than PT. Maternal...
Meta-analyses in psychology often lack the power to adequately account for between-studies heterogeneity. The number of studies on any topic is typically low, because research cost- and time-intensive. At same time, a host potential moderators are introduced when similar questions examined different labs, sampling from populations, using idiosyncratic methods instrumentation. Such heterogeneity presents substantial challenge data aggregation classic meta-analysis. When causes known a-priori,...
