๐ข Call for Hidden Papers & Data on Ingroup Favoritism in Dictator Games
We look for unpublished and hard-to-access experimental studies for our meta-analysis!
Inclusion criteria: no deception, adults, manipulation of group membership of dictator game recipients.
All tips and data very welcome!
๐ So happy to finally see this paper in print!
TL;DR: Altruism and Parochialism can be (and should always be) measured independent of each other.
Personal take-away: never forget that results from Western samples don't automatically generalize! (Here,A&P are correlated in DEU&USA, but not in ETH.)
Thanks again, @epthepod.bsky.social, for having me! ๐ง
๐ฌ We discussed three research agendas in quite some depth: exploitation, identity & ingroup favoritism, and heroic behavior.
๐ Dave & David are wonderful hosts! After our conversation, I'm even more enthusiastic...
๐ซต Can we inspire you too?

Polizeiliche Kriminalstatistiken sollten โmit Vorsicht gelesen werdenโ, sagt DIW-Forscherin @annabindler.bsky.social. Sie plรคdiert dafรผr, neben der PKS auch Dunkelfeldstudien zu berรผcksichtigen. Diese beziehen auch nicht gemeldete Straftaten mit ein. Zum Statement: www.diw.de/de/diw_01.c....
Wissenschaftliche Artikel hinter Paywalls und wir haben keinen Zugriff? Ein ziemlicher Skandal, denn schlieรlich haben wir fรผr diese Forschung ja mit unseren Steuergeldern bezahlt! Bei MAITHINK X decken wir heute auf, wie milliardenschwere Verlage die Wissenschaft im Wรผrgegriff haben! Schaut rein! ๐ง
Deutschland braucht ein modernes #Forschungsdatengesetz. Eine bessere Verfรผgbarkeit von Daten fรผhrt zu hochwertigeren Publikationen, die รถfter bei politischen Entscheidungen genutzt werden. Die Vorarbeit fรผr ein solches Gesetz hat die #Ampel bereits geleistet. Mehr dazu:
www.diw.de/de/diw_01.c....
Der Diskurs zu #Kriminalitรคt und #Zuwanderung muss sachlicher werden
Was weiร die Forschung รผber #Migration und #Gewalt? Drei Erkenntnisse aus Studien zeigen, warum die pauschale Aussage "Zuwanderung erhรถht Kriminalitรคt" nicht stimmt.
Meine Kolumne, mit Anna Bindler:

If one person gives a euro to Ukraine, the result is โฌ1.
If two people give 2 each, it is โฌ4.
If 3,000 give 3,000 each, it is 9 million.
