Politics Doesn’t Define How Most People See Themselves

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
How can stable personality traits explain less stable PRR voting? Daniel Komaromy, @delaneypeterson.bsky.social, @mrooduijn.bsky.social and I test whether negative contact with immigrants 'activates' these traits. Mostly, it doesn't. But: initial exposure and out-group definition may matter.
Congratulations Jochem!
Amazing work Lucas!

Turning Politics Inside-Out: NEUROPOL Workshop! 🧠🗳️
Amsterdam, January 23rd
We're discussing the core challenge of Political Neuroscience: How do we bridge the gap between detailed cognitive mechanisms (high internal validity) and real-world political behavior (high ecological validity)?
New paper out w/ @tomwgvdmeer.bsky.social & @hakhverdian.bsky.social in @epsrjournal.bsky.social. We show that political trust dynamics matter for electoral behavior. While stable and variable distrusters behave similarly, declining trust boosts both abstention and anti-establishment voting. 🧵
Excited to share a new preprint with @bnbakker.bsky.social, @ylelkes.bsky.social & @gijsschumacher.bsky.social!
doi.org/10.31234/osf...
Affective polarization research focuses almost exclusively on valence, despite affect having at least two core dimensions. We show that emotional arousal matters!

New in 'The Handbook of Loneliness': 📊 This chapter examines how loneliness shapes political attitudes and participation, distinguishing it from social embeddedness while highlighting their interconnected pathways. bit.ly/4p9ejBI #BookSky #ReserachPublishing @langenkamp.bsky.social
Looking forward to reading this comprehensive resource on loneliness, with chapters on attachment, the physiological effects of loneliness and loneliness and political behaviour, among others! link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

My first publication :) in Social Media + Society with @fhopp.bsky.social, Michael Hameleers & @lindabos.bsky.social: “Moral Foundations of Populist Communication.” We found populists lean more on Care/Authority plus they shift moral tone across platforms more than mainstreamers.

🚀🎉 Thrilled to share that the first paper of my PhD dissertation is now published in Political Studies Review: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
Does social media help women politicians overcome barriers in visibility - or does it just replicate old hierarchies?
A short 🧵
🚨 New publication out @jeppjournal.bsky.social w/ Katrin Praprotnik @luanarusso.bsky.social @markuswagner.bsky.social
We show that coalition signals from the mainstream right to the radical right shift, rather than reduce, existing political divisions.
Open-access article: doi.org/10.1080/1350...
- Posted two new preprints (with @bnbakker.bsky.social @delaneypeterson.bsky.social & Maaike Homan)

This research was conducted with @gijsschumacher.bsky.social, @fhopp.bsky.social and @bnbakker.bsky.social and was funded by the NWO, the ERC and the University of Amsterdam. (9/9)
Politics may be responsible for an emerging category of mental health problems, one that traditional MH measures neglect to capture. As such, domain-specific PMH is a way to name the toll politics is taking on individuals well-being. (8/9)
