When is an outgroup kinda sorta an ingroup? Lucy Song asks whether race affects foreign threat perception. Among white Americans, higher white identity tracked with viewing white-depicted adversaries as lower threat than non-white-depicted, even when controlling for out-group animus. buff.ly/yFalewy

In interviews of 28 climate advocates, they find expected outcomes of gridlock, like intransigence & radicalization, as well as surprisingly cooperative attitudes. buff.ly/qEv5RKu

New paper in Political Psychology (@ispp-pops.bsky.social) tested the Social Identity Model of Collective Action during Gen Z protests in Madagascar. They show SIMCA's relevance for post-action social harmony This is also the first data exclusively from Madagascar published in the journal!
Screenshot of article title and abstract. The title is, "Navigating social change and social harmony: Testing SIMCA in Gen Z collective action in Madagascar and its role in reconciliation processes". The abstract is, "The Social Identity Model of Collective Action (SIMCA) effectively predicts collective action and social change, but has been less examined in emerging movements and non-WEIRD contexts. This research had two aims: to test SIMCA during the Gen Z mobilization in Madagascar, a largely online movement that culminated in the overthrow of the government in October 2025; and to examine how SIMCA variables relate to post-action activism and reconciliation. Study 1 (N = 959), conducted during the governmental transition, tested SIMCA—including national identification, Gen Z identification, perceived injustice, collective efficacy, and morality—on online collective action support, intention, and participation. Study 2 (N = 258), conducted post-transition, examined associations with activism intention, reconciliation, and forgiveness. Gen Z identification and morality were consistently associated with collective action and activism intention, whereas perceived injustice was primarily linked to ongoing collective action. Collective efficacy showed mixed associations. In contrast, national identification emerged as a key factor of post-action forgiveness. These findings suggest that SIMCA variables are involved not only in social change but also in post-action social harmony. They highlight the distinct roles of politicized and non-politicized identities, underscoring the importance of conceptualizing collective action as a temporally and contextually embedded process."

🔥Hot off the press via @ispp-pops.bsky.social A very particular set of skills: The role of perspective-taking in hostage diplomacy negotiations Profs. Dani Gilbert ( @danigilbert.bsky.social / @buffett.northwestern.edu ) & Cynthia Wang ( @cynthiascwang.bsky.social / @drrc-kellogg.bsky.social )
Gilbert, D., & Wang, C. S. (2026). A very particular set of skills: The role of perspective-taking in hostage diplomacy negotiations. Political Psychology, 47, e70173. https://doi.org/10.1111/pops.70173

Abstract
Hostage diplomacy—detaining foreign nationals for leverage under the pretext of national law—is a growing international security problem. Beyond constituting a violation of international law, hostage diplomacy is challenging to resolve. Target states must deal with aggressive, sovereign perpetrators; handle a fraudulent but plausible legal process; account for numerous stakeholders; and protect their citizens from future harm. How do target-state negotiators navigate these challenges? This theory-building article explores perspective-taking—imagining the world from another's vantage point—as a tool to shape target-state negotiators' effectiveness in navigating hostage diplomacy. We introduce a model that conceptualizes perspective-taking on two dimensions. First, negotiators can use multiple-perspective taking, considering various stakeholders, including interests within their own government, the perpetrator's government, and the hostage's family. Second, across stakeholders, negotiators can take strategic, cultural, emotional, and moral perspectives. We posit that engaging in different forms of perspective-taking improves target-state negotiators' ability to identify a domestic win-set, reach international agreement, and anticipate future crises. Drawing on insights from members of the U.S. hostage-recovery enterprise, we offer a plausibility probe suggesting that perspective-taking affects the process and outcomes of negotiations. Perspective-taking may thus help negotiators better manage power dynamics, navigate informal rules of engagement, alleviate uncertainty, and bolster global security.

Can cross-cutting beliefs help dial down polarization? Sander & Degner examine the effects that counterstereotypes (eg, a pro-gun control Republican) have on how partisans view and categorize those opinions. Read open-access for more on their experiments: doi.org/10.1111/pops...
Figure 1: Example of the typicality manipulation. The figure shows the last three responses of an example transcript in which the Republican target guest (black boxes) expresses either a stereotype‐disconfirming (upper panel) or stereotype‐confirming (lower panel) opinion on the target issue (affirmative action). The full transcript is available in Supporting Information S3.Figure 2: Mean categorization scores for Experiment 1. A categorization score of 100 indicates that the person with the target opinion is perceived as definitely belonging to the category associated with that opinion, while a score of 50 indicates they are seen as equally likely to belong to either category. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals.
